Weather in August
Temperature
The commencement of August records an average high-temperature of a still warm 80.8°F (27.1°C), barely varying from July's 81.9°F (27.7°C). During August, Morton experiences a consistent low-temperature average of 63.3°F (17.4°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is computed to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Persistently participating in activities during exposure may lead to fatigue and induce heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
