Weather in August
Temperature
Leopold experiences an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.6°F (29.8°C) with the onset of August, subtly varied from July's 86.5°F (30.3°C). In the month of August, the average low-temperature usually rests at a comfortable 65.7°F (18.7°C).Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Heightened precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
