Weather in August
Temperature
Roswell records an average high-temperature of a still hot 89.4°F (31.9°C) in August, maintaining a close correlation with July's 90.3°F (32.4°C). Throughout the month of August, the nighttime temperature dips to an average of 70.3°F (21.3°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is evaluated at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
Humidity
July and August, with an average relative humidity of 68%, are the least humid months in Roswell.Rainfall
The month with the most rainfall is August, when the rain falls for 20.3 days and typically aggregates up to 5.55" (141mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

Sunshine
In August, the average sunshine is 9.3h.UV index
May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: In August, the UV index of 6 transforms into the following advice:
Guard oneself from overexposure. Defence against sun injury is vital. Remember that UV radiation from the Sun is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to limit direct sun exposure during this time. Fend off the sun's harsh rays with appropriate clothing, a wide-brim hat, and UV-protective sunglasses.
