August, the last month of the summer in Carmichael, is another tropical month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 93.4°F (34.1°C) and an average low of 60.1°F (15.6°C).

Heat index

For August, the heat index is appraised at a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.
Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

The Sun's UV radiation is most intense from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
