Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Shamrock, Florida, with an average temperature fluctuating between 89.8°F (32.1°C) and 76.8°F (24.9°C).

Temperature

In August, Shamrock experiences a barely noticeable shift in meteorological conditions, with average high-temperatures moving from 90°F (32.2°C) in July to a still tropical 89.8°F (32.1°C). Shamrock observes an average low-temperature of 76.8°F (24.9°C) during August nights.

Heat index

August's heat index is appraised at a scorching 109.4°F (43°C). Heed: Expect heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continued action may cause heatstroke.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
