Weather in August
Temperature
August's average high-temperature stands at a still moderately hot 81.3°F (27.4°C), showing little deviation from July's 82°F (27.8°C). In Latham, the average temperature during the nights of August drops to a comfortable 63.9°F (17.7°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Staying active during long-term exposure might result in a state of exhaustion and cause heat cramps.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
