Weather in August
Temperature
Sizerock's shift into August is marked by a subtle change to a moderately hot 85.1°F (29.5°C) from July's 86.2°F (30.1°C) in temperature. In August, the temperature sees a substantial plunge from daytime highs to a low average of 61.7°F (16.5°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 95°F (35°C). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.

Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., UV radiation is strongest. Make an effort to avoid direct sunlight during this time, remembering that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
