Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Leisure Village, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 92.5°F (33.6°C) and 73°F (22.8°C).

Temperature

August's beginning signals an average high-temperature of a still hot 92.5°F (33.6°C), barely different from July's 92.8°F (33.8°C). Leisure Village's average low-temperature in the month of August is recorded at a pleasant 73°F (22.8°C).

Heat index

The heat index in August is estimated at a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Eyes open: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Prolonged exertion could lead to heatstroke.
Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
