Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August records an average high-temperature of a still hot 91.2°F (32.9°C), subtly varied from July's 91.9°F (33.3°C). In the month of August, Fountain Lake records a consistent average low-temperature of 69.8°F (21°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely to occur. Prolonged exertion can lead to heatstroke.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
