Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August records an average high-temperature of a still warm 84.7°F (29.3°C), closely related to the 85.6°F (29.8°C) observed in July. New Castle observes an average nighttime temperature of 65.1°F (18.4°C) during August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is appraised at a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
