Weather in August

In August, the average heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
