Alps's weather in August, with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.7°F (31.5°C), subtly shifts from July's 90°F (32.2°C). Alps observes an average low-temperature of 70°F (21.1°C) during August nights.

Heat index

The average heat index in August is calculated to be a blistering 105.8°F (41°C). Use additional protective measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible outcomes. Continuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
