Weather in August
Temperature
August brings an average high-temperature of a still warm 81.3°F (27.4°C), nearly identical to the preceding month. An average minimum temperature of 63.5°F (17.5°C) marks the month of August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is estimated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If one continues to be active during enduring exposure, it could result in fatigue and heat cramps.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
