Weather in August
Temperature
Holt's entry into August measures an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C), closely parallel to the preceding month. Nightly temperatures drop to an average low of 63°F (17.2°C) in August.Heat index
The heat index in August is evaluated at a hot 86°F (30°C). Exposure and extended activity could potentially cause a state of fatigue and lead to heat cramps.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
