Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August is marked by an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 82.8°F (28.2°C), bearing a close resemblance to July. Mays Chapel witnesses an average low-temperature of 66.7°F (19.3°C) throughout the month of August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). If one endures exposure and continues to be active, it might result in tiredness and heat cramps.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. 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 are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
