Weather in August
Temperature
The introduction of August notes a subtle temperature variation to a still hot 88.3°F (31.3°C) from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). August nights are marked by an average low-temperature of 70.2°F (21.2°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is calculated to be a blistering 104°F (40°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
