Weather in August

Temperature

The warmest period is August, when temperatures fluctuate between an average high of 93.9°F (34.4°C) and a low of 72.5°F (22.5°C).

Heat index

In August, the average heat index is appraised at a blazing hot 120.2°F (49°C). Keep on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a possible danger with ongoing physical activity.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
