Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August records an average high-temperature of a still warm 80.6°F (27°C), subtly varied from July's 82.6°F (28.1°C). Nighttime temperatures hover around an average low of 61.2°F (16.2°C) in August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is computed to be 84.2°F (29°C). Persistent activity under exposure might lead to a feeling of weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
