Weather in August
Temperature
Transitioning into August, Elizabeth experiences an average high-temperature of a still hot 89.8°F (32.1°C), marking a minor shift from the preceding month. Despite a significant daily temperature range, Elizabeth's temperature falls to a steady low-temperature average of 66.9°F (19.4°C) in August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 107.6°F (42°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
