Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, the average high-temperature stands at a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C), closely aligned with July's 83.3°F (28.5°C). Nighttime temperatures exhibit a substantial dip from daytime highs during August, averaging at a refreshing 57.7°F (14.3°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is estimated at a hot 86°F (30°C). Unrelenting activity during exposure could cause fatigue and potentially lead to heat cramps.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. 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 a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. 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. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
