Weather in August
Temperature
August is the warmest month of the year, registering average temperatures as high as 90°F (32.2°C) and as low as 75°F (23.9°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely to occur. Prolonged exertion can lead to heatstroke.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. 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. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Shun overexposure. Protection from sun ravages is indispensable. The Sun's UV radiation is most intense from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. Consider a wide-brim hat essential for effective sun defense covering your face, neck, and eyes.
