Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Summerfield, is another hot month, with an average temperature varying between 93.7°F (34.3°C) and 72.5°F (22.5°C).

Temperature

Summerfield's temperatures tend to hit their maximum during July and August, with an average high-temperature of 93.7°F (34.3°C).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is appraised at a blazing hot 118.4°F (48°C). Beware: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are on the cards. Heatstroke could result from sustained physical activity.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. 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 hold particular significance for children. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
