Weather in August
Temperature
Christmas notes the warmest temperatures in August, with a high average of 91°F (32.8°C) and a low of 76.6°F (24.8°C).Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are foreseeable. Prolonged effort may bring about heatstroke.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.

The months with the highest UV index are May through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: A maximum UV index of 7 in August translates into the following recommendations:
Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. Avoid direct exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, noting that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer complete sun protection. Equip yourself with UVA and UVB-filtering sunglasses on clear, sunny days.
