Weather in August
Temperature
With August's arrival, Zurich's weather records an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), marking little difference from July's 93°F (33.9°C). Zurich's August nights see a large temperature deviation, with temperatures resting at a low of 67.5°F (19.7°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 98.6°F (37°C). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
