Weather in August
Temperature
Pecan Ridge witnesses its highest average temperatures during July and August, peaking at 91.9°F (33.3°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is computed to be a life-threatening hot 118.4°F (48°C). Stay on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Ongoing effort can cause heatstroke.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. 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. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.

Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
