Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 80.6°F (27°C), subtly varied from July's 82.2°F (27.9°C). Maynard experiences a mean low-temperature of 61.5°F (16.4°C) during August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at 84.2°F (29°C). If one endures exposure and continues to be active, it might result in tiredness and heat cramps.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
