Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August is a still moderately hot 80.8°F (27.1°C), almost matching the conditions of the preceding month. In the month of August, Buffalo witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 63.1°F (17.3°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is appraised at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Enduring exposure and unrelenting activity might cause a state of weariness, potentially leading to heat cramps.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.

Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
