Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Tullos, is another hot month, with an average temperature varying between 93.2°F (34°C) and 73°F (22.8°C).

Temperature

With August's advent, Tullos sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 93.2°F (34°C), subtly shifted from July's 93.7°F (34.3°C). Nighttime temperatures consistently average a pleasant 73°F (22.8°C) during August.

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 120.2°F (49°C). Be wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are highly anticipated. With continued activity, heatstroke is very likely.
When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
