Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Summers, is another hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 68.2°F (20.1°C) and 89.1°F (31.7°C).

Temperature

Summers's shift from July to August is accompanied by an average high-temperature of a still hot 89.1°F (31.7°C), a slight deviation from 90°F (32.2°C). Summers's average low-temperature during August nights is observed to be a pleasant 68.2°F (20.1°C).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 104°F (40°C). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
