Weather in August
Temperature
August's average high-temperature stands at a still warm 82.2°F (27.9°C), showing little deviation from July's 83.7°F (28.7°C). An average low-temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C) is observed during the August nights.Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
