August, the last month of the summer in Reserve, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 75.7°F (24.3°C) and 89.6°F (32°C).

Temperature

As July turns into August, the average high-temperatures rest at a still tropical 89.6°F (32°C), showing a minor variation from the prior month. During the August nights, an average temperature of 75.7°F (24.3°C) is observed in Reserve.

Heat index

The heat index value for August is calculated to be a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Be alert: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a threat with sustained physical activity.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
