Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August sees the average high-temperature at a still moderately hot 81°F (27.2°C), subtly shifted from July's 81.9°F (27.7°C). Throughout the month of August, Stoughton witnesses an average low-temperature of 63.1°F (17.3°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. 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 important for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
