Weather in August
Temperature
In Doctor Phillips, the month of August is known for its highest average temperatures, reaching a high of 91°F (32.8°C) and a low of 76.8°F (24.9°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Beware: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are very likely. Heatstroke is imminent with prolonged activity.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
