Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August brings an average high-temperature of a still warm 82.4°F (28°C), nearly identical to July's 84.2°F (29°C). An average temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C) is recorded during the nights in August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is evaluated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). If one continues to be active during exposure, it might cause tiredness and subsequent heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
