Weather in August
Temperature
Mansfield records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 91.6°F (33.1°C) in August, maintaining a close correlation with July's 92.8°F (33.8°C). Despite the high peak temperatures, Mansfield witnesses an average nighttime cooling to a pleasant 69.3°F (20.7°C) in August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Notice: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued strenuous activity might lead to heatstroke.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important 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.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
