Yuma registers an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C) at the commencement of August, closely related to the preceding month. A marked drop from daytime peak temperatures to an average low-temperature of 63.5°F (17.5°C) is observed during the nights in August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is evaluated at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Unrelenting activity during exposure could cause fatigue and potentially lead to heat cramps.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
