Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Burnham Woods, is another hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 88.5°F (31.4°C) and an average low of 69.8°F (21°C).

Temperature

Entering August, the average high-temperature is recorded at a still tropical 88.5°F (31.4°C), exhibiting a minimal shift from July's 89.8°F (32.1°C). Burnham Woods records a mean low-temperature of 69.8°F (21°C) in August.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 104°F (40°C). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital 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.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
