Weather in August
Temperature
During August, Broughton records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.2°F (31.8°C), marking a slight divergence from July's 90.7°F (32.6°C). Throughout August, an average nighttime temperature of 69.8°F (21°C) is experienced.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 105.8°F (41°C). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
Humidity
In August, the average relative humidity is 74%.Rainfall
The month with the most rainfall is August, when the rain falls for 21.1 days and typically aggregates up to 4.96" (126mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

Sunshine

May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: The daily high UV index of 6 in August translates into this advice:
Take precautions against overexposure. Protection against sun damage is needed. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is particularly strong, noting that parasols or canopies may not offer total sun protection. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
