Weather in August
Temperature
Kirk experiences a minor change to a still hot 88.9°F (31.6°C) in average high-temperature during August, closely reflecting July. Throughout August, Kirk witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 69.6°F (20.9°C).Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a blisteringly hot 105.8°F (41°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
