Weather in August
Temperature
Bentley's shift into August is marked by a subtle change to a still hot 90°F (32.2°C) from July's 92.5°F (33.6°C) in temperature. During the month of August, the temperature generally drops to a low average of 69.1°F (20.6°C).Heat index
August's heat index is computed to be a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
Humidity
In August, the average relative humidity is 62%.Rainfall
In August, the rain falls for 11.8 days. Throughout August, 1.73" (44mm) of precipitation is accumulated. In Bentley, during the entire year, the rain falls for 94.8 days and collects up to 12.48" (317mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

Sunshine
In Bentley, the average sunshine in August is 11h.UV index
The average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.Note: In August, the maximum UV index of 6 suggests this advice:
Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but keep in mind that not all shade structures provide complete protection. Opt for tightly woven and loose clothing to enhance protection from the Sun.
