Weather in August
Temperature
August registers an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), slightly varied from July's 91°F (32.8°C). Throughout August, Owen records an average temperature of 74.1°F (23.4°C) at night.Heat index
The average heat index in August is appraised at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. 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.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
