Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August sees a recorded average high-temperature of a still warm 84.7°F (29.3°C), showing little divergence from the previous month's conditions. Blanche reports a steady low-temperature average of 61.3°F (16.3°C) throughout August, revealing a large deviation from the daytime high.Heat index
In August, the heat index is appraised at a torrid 95°F (35°C). Incorporate additional safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Long-term activity may induce heatstroke.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.
