Weather in August
Temperature
In August, Topeka notes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 82°F (27.8°C), hardly different from the preceding month. The month of August records an average low-temperature of 64°F (17.8°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). With sustained exposure and activity, exhaustion becomes probable, resulting in heat cramps.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
