Weather in August
Temperature
Temperatures reach their maximum during July and August, recording an average high-temperature of 90.1°F (32.3°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is computed to be a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. 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.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

Sunshine

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 threat to health from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: In August, a daily UV index of 7 turns into the following recommendations:
Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
