August, the last month of the summer in Berkeley Lake, is another tropical month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 70.2°F (21.2°C) and an average high of 89.2°F (31.8°C).

Temperature

As Berkeley Lake transitions into August, the average high-temperature stands at a still hot 89.2°F (31.8°C), offering little variation from the preceding month. Berkeley Lake observes an average low-temperature of 70.2°F (21.2°C) during August nights.

Heat index

During August, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.

Note: The UV index of 6 during August leads to these advisories:
Undertake precautions and comply with sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye injury is vital. Avoid direct exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, noting that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer complete sun protection. A wide-brimmed hat provides unparalleled sun protection for sensitive areas like the eyes, ears, and neck.
