Weather in August
Temperature
Temperature records mark August as the warmest month, with highs averaging 90.7°F (32.6°C) and lows at 76.8°F (24.9°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is calculated to be a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are quite likely. Heatstroke becomes a risk with continued exertion.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
Humidity
In August, the average relative humidity is 77%.Rainfall
August is the month with the most rainfall. Rain falls for 24.5 days and accumulates 5.75" (146mm) of precipitation.Daylight

Sunshine
In Corkscrew, the average sunshine in August is 9.5h.UV index
May through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index in Corkscrew. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: An average UV index of 7 in August transforms into this advice:
Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Avoid direct Sun exposure and stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is most intense, noting that not all shade structures offer full protection. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
