Weather in August
Temperature
With the advent of August, North Highlands's high-temperatures adjust to a still tropical 93.4°F (34.1°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. The August nights in North Highlands bear witness to a significant drop from the daytime highs, settling at an average temperature of 60.3°F (15.7°C).Heat index
August's heat index is computed to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Ensure heightened precautions, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is significant. Sustained activity could provoke heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
