Weather in August
Temperature
With August's arrival, Magothy Forest notes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 83.7°F (28.7°C), closely following the trend of the preceding month. Throughout August, Magothy Forest encounters an average temperature drop to a pleasant 69.1°F (20.6°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 91.4°F (33°C). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. 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. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
