Weather in August
Temperature
The commencement of August brings an average high-temperature of a warm 85.3°F (29.6°C), marking an inconsequential divergence from July. During August, Mulkeytown records a consistent average nighttime temperature of 66°F (18.9°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is evaluated at a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. 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 particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
