Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, the average high-temperature registers at a still hot 88.2°F (31.2°C), subtly different from July's 89.2°F (31.8°C). Following the sharp contrast to daytime warmth, an average nighttime temperature of 59.9°F (15.5°C) gets registered during August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical 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.
