Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, the average high-temperature stands at a still hot 90.3°F (32.4°C), closely aligned with July's 91.6°F (33.1°C). In the month of August, the temperature generally rests at an average low of 70.7°F (21.5°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 109.4°F (43°C). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Implement precautions and maintain sun safety methods. Avoidance of sunburn is demanded. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
