Weather in August
Temperature
Riverview transitions into August recording an average high-temperature of a still warm 82.2°F (27.9°C), closely aligning with the preceding month's temperature. Riverview records an average low of 68.2°F (20.1°C) throughout the nights in August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Prolonged exposure combined with continuous activity could lead to exhaustion, and possibly heat cramps.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
