Weather in August
Temperature
August, characterized by an average high temperature of 88.5°F (31.4°C) and a low temperature of 79.7°F (26.5°C), is generally the warmest month.Heat index
August's mean heat index is evaluated at an extremely hot 104°F (40°C). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

The average relative humidity in August is 74%.Rainfall
August is the month with the most rainfall. Rain falls for 26.8 days and accumulates 6.42" (163mm) of precipitation.Daylight

Sunshine

May through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.Note: In August, the UV index of 7 transforms into the following advice:
Uphold preventive measures and conform to sun safety guidelines. Defending against skin and eye harm is crucial. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. Boost your sun resistance with garments that are densely woven yet spacious.
