Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August coincides with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.8°F (31°C), indicating a minimal shift from July's 89.2°F (31.8°C). Throughout the month of August, Horseshoe Lake witnesses an average temperature of 70.5°F (21.4°C).Heat index
August's heat index is calculated to be a blistering 104°F (40°C). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
