Weather in August
Temperature
The shift from July to August is characterized by an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.8°F (29.9°C), not significantly different from the 86.9°F (30.5°C) of July. The average low-temperature, in August, is a refreshing 65.8°F (18.8°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
