Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August marks an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 84°F (28.9°C), hardly differing from July's 86.5°F (30.3°C). Throughout August, Odenton encounters an average temperature drop to a pleasant 68.2°F (20.1°C).Heat index
The heat index in August is appraised at a tropical 91.4°F (33°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
