Weather in August
Temperature
With average temperatures fluctuating between a high of 95°F (35°C) and a low of 73°F (22.8°C), August stands out as the warmest month.Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at a blazing hot 122°F (50°C). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
