Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August is marked with an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.5°F (32.5°C), showing an insignificant shift from July's 91°F (32.8°C). In Jones, the average low-temperature during the month of August is a pleasant 72.9°F (22.7°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 111.2°F (44°C). Guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are foreseeable. Prolonged effort may bring about heatstroke.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. 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. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Sunshine

The months with the highest UV index are June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: A maximum high UV index of 7 in August translates into the following recommendations:
Take precautions and adopt sun safety practices. Protection against sunburn is obliged. The time between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is when UV radiation is at its peak. Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. During bright days, sunglasses that offer UVA and UVB defense are recommended.
