Weather in August
Temperature
August stands out as Parkland's warmest month, with an average high-temperature of 89.2°F (31.8°C) and a low-temperature of 80.2°F (26.8°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a blistering 105.8°F (41°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
