Weather in August
Temperature
Elliott's weather, upon August's arrival, documents an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.9°F (27.7°C), nearly identical to the prior month. Nighttime temperatures consistently average an enjoyable 63.1°F (17.3°C) during August.Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If one persists in activity during exposure, it could induce weariness and subsequently, heat cramps.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
