Weather in August
Temperature
Welcoming August, Valliant notes an average high-temperature of a still warm 82.9°F (28.3°C), nearly consistent with July's 84.4°F (29.1°C). In Valliant, the August nights cool down to an average low of 70.3°F (21.3°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is calculated to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Ongoing activity coupled with exposure often results in weariness and could induce heat cramps.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
