Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August records an average high-temperature of a still hot 88°F (31.1°C), subtly varied from July's 88.3°F (31.3°C). Rutherford's August nights bring a significant temperature shift, averaging at a fresh 54.1°F (12.3°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: The maximum UV index of 6 during August leads to these instructions:
Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. A wide-brimmed hat provides unparalleled sun protection for sensitive areas like the eyes, ears, and neck.
