Weather in August
Temperature
During August, Gridley observes a subtle ascent to a still hot 86.2°F (30.1°C) from July's 88.2°F (31.2°C) in the average high-temperature. During August, the average low-temperature in Gridley, Kansas, is a refreshing 66.6°F (19.2°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
