Weather in August
Temperature
August is the warmest month, with the temperature often reaching an average high of 90°F (32.2°C) and an average low of 77.5°F (25.3°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.

Deter overexposure. Protecting against the sun's effects is essential. To the best of your ability, limit your exposure to the sun between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Sun protection is enhanced with clothing that boasts a tight weave yet offers a loose fit.
