Weather in August
Temperature
Eureka ushers in August with an average high-temperature of a still hot 86.9°F (30.5°C), showing a close resemblance to the previous month. Throughout August, Eureka witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 66.9°F (19.4°C).Heat index
In August, the average heat index is calculated to be a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. 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 are quite important for children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.

Sunshine
In Eureka, the average sunshine in August is 10.6h.UV index
The average daily maximum UV index in August in Eureka is 6. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 6 during August translates into the following directions:
Shield from overexposure. Defense against sun-related harm is required. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
