Weather in August
Temperature
Entering August, Watson's average high-temperature reads a still warm 82°F (27.8°C), indicating a close resemblance to the previous month's climate. During August, an average low-temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C) is observed.Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Extended exposure and activity might lead to tiredness, potentially resulting in heat cramps.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
