Weather in August
Temperature
August's climate shows a minor adjustment in average high-temperatures to a still hot 86.5°F (30.3°C) from July's 88°F (31.1°C). An average low-temperature of 67.8°F (19.9°C) is noted during the nights in August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
