Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, the average high-temperature stands at a still hot 91°F (32.8°C), closely aligned with July's 93.7°F (34.3°C). In Medicine Lodge, the August nights cool down to an average low of 70.7°F (21.5°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
