Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August marks an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 84.9°F (29.4°C), hardly differing from July's 86.4°F (30.2°C). Buffalo's temperature lowers to a mean of 65.5°F (18.6°C) during the nights in August.Heat index
August's heat index is estimated at a torrid 95°F (35°C). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
