Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Roland, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 91.2°F (32.9°C) and min 70.3°F (21.3°C).

Temperature

August brings a marginal elevation to a still hot 91.2°F (32.9°C) from July's 92.1°F (33.4°C) in Roland's average high-temperatures. During August, the nighttime temperature averages to a pleasant 70.3°F (21.3°C).

Heat index

The heat index for August is appraised at a scorching 111.2°F (44°C). Keep wary: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a possible outcome of ongoing activity.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Evade overexposure. Individuals with fair skin risk burning in under 20 minutes. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat.
