Weather in August
Temperature
The months of July and August bring the highest temperatures, averaging a high of 93.7°F (34.3°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is estimated at a blazing hot 118.4°F (48°C). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: The UV index of 7 during August translates into the following guidance:
Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. Be aware that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and try to reduce direct sun exposure during this period as much as possible. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
