Weather in August
Temperature
The introduction of August sees an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C), hardly deviating from July. During August, Philo consistently records a temperature low averaging an enjoyable 63.3°F (17.4°C).Heat index
In August, the average heat index is evaluated at a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Prolonged exposure and physical activity might induce exhaustion, potentially causing heat cramps.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
