Weather in August
Temperature
August's climate shows a minor adjustment in average high-temperatures to a still moderately hot 82.8°F (28.2°C) from July's 84.6°F (29.2°C). Colora experiences a mean temperature of 65.1°F (18.4°C) during August nights.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Exposure and extended activity could potentially cause a state of fatigue and lead to heat cramps.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
