Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Bolyn, is also a moderately hot month, with an average temperature varying between 61.7°F (16.5°C) and 85.6°F (29.8°C).

Temperature

The commencement of August notes an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.6°F (29.8°C), exhibiting little difference from the previous month. A significant temperature decrease to an average a comfortable 61.7°F (16.5°C) characterizes Bolyn's nighttime temperatures during August.

Heat index

The average heat index in August is computed to be a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.
Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. 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.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.

Eschew overexposure. Those with light skin may suffer burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim.
