Temperature

A minor adjustment in Hadley's average high-temperature is noted with the start of August, touching a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C) from July's 86.9°F (30.5°C). Throughout August, the nighttime temperature averages to a comfortable 66.6°F (19.2°C).

Heat index

For August, the heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.
Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
