Weather in August
Temperature
The transition from July to August sees an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.9°F (31.6°C), indicating a minor variance from the prior month. Ratio observes an average nighttime low-temperature of 71.4°F (21.9°C) during the month of August.Heat index
August's average heat index is appraised at a blistering 105.8°F (41°C). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

The average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: During August, 6 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure.
