Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature is a still hot 89.1°F (31.7°C) in August, hardly different from the 90.3°F (32.4°C) recorded in July. Bristol Downs witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 70°F (21.1°C) throughout August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Outfit yourself in sun-safe attire, like long sleeves, pants, a hat, and UV-blocking sunglasses.
