Weather in August
Temperature
On the advent of August, Norwood's average high-temperature exhibits a minor adjustment to a still tropical 91°F (32.8°C) from July's 91.6°F (33.1°C). An average low-temperature of 72.5°F (22.5°C) is observed during the August nights.Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Warning: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Heatstroke is a risk with ongoing activity.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
