Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August records an average high-temperature of a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), subtly varied from July's 86.5°F (30.3°C). During August, an average low-temperature of 65.8°F (18.8°C) is observed.Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. 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 'real feel' or 'feels like', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
