Weather in August
Temperature
August's onset records a minor alteration in the average high-temperature to a still torrid 95.5°F (35.3°C) from July's 96.4°F (35.8°C). August nights in Salida, California, are characterized by a notable drop from daytime highs, with an average low-temperature of 61.3°F (16.3°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 100.4°F (38°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
