Weather in August
Temperature
Slater's temperatures peak on average in August, reaching 89.4°F (31.9°C) at their highest and 79°F (26.1°C) at their lowest.Heat index
August's heat index is calculated to be a blistering 107.6°F (42°C). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. 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', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 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.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
Humidity
In August, the average relative humidity is 75%.Rainfall
The month with the most rainfall is August, when the rain falls for 22.7 days and typically aggregates up to 4.72" (120mm) of precipitation.Daylight
In August, the average length of the day is 13h and 4min.On the first day of the month, sunrise is at 6:52 am and sunset at 8:14 pm. On the last day of August, sunrise is at 7:06 am and sunset at 7:48 pm EDT.
Sunshine
The average sunshine in August is 9.6h.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are May through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: In August, the average maximum UV index of 7 translates into the following recommendations:
Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. A hat with a generous brim can prevent nearly 50% of UV rays from reaching your eyes.
