Weather in August
Temperature
Lenexa signifies an average high-temperature of a warm 85.5°F (29.7°C) in August, closely mirroring the 87.3°F (30.7°C) of July. The average temperature during August nights is registered at a comfortable 66.6°F (19.2°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

Undertake precautions and comply with sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye injury is vital. The Sun's UV radiation is most powerful between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. To the extent possible, limit exposure to the direct sun during these hours. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
