Temperature

In Bruing, temperatures reach their average annual highs in August, measuring 90.5°F (32.5°C) and a minimum average of 77.5°F (25.3°C).

Heat index

The heat index in August is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in August is 75%.

Note: A maximum high UV index of 7 in August translates into the following recommendations:
Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
