Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August is a still moderately hot 82.2°F (27.9°C), almost matching the conditions of the preceding month. During August, Bowen consistently records a temperature low averaging a comfortable 63.9°F (17.7°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is appraised at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Exhaustion becomes probable with enduring exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
