Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August observes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.9°F (32.7°C), nearly identical to July's 91°F (32.8°C). Waldo throughout August, experiences an average nighttime temperature of 74.8°F (23.8°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. 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 human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
