Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Santa Claus, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 73°F (22.8°C) and 89.8°F (32.1°C).

Temperature

Santa Claus sees the arrival of August with an average high-temperature of a still hot 89.8°F (32.1°C), indicating a subtle variation from July. August witnesses an average low-temperature hovering around an agreeable 73°F (22.8°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Precaution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are possible. Heatstroke is a serious risk with continued exertion.
Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
