Weather in August
Temperature
As Highland Acres welcomes August, the average high-temperature records at a still warm 81.9°F (27.7°C), marking an insignificant deviation from the prior month. Highland Acres encounters a steady low-temperature average of 68.4°F (20.2°C) throughout the month of August.Heat index
August's heat index is computed to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If exposure and activity persist, fatigue could ensue, possibly leading to heat cramps.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
