Weather in August
Temperature
The temperature hits its peak in July and August, recording an average high-temperature of 91.6°F (33.1°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is appraised at a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Beware: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are on the cards. Heatstroke could result from sustained physical activity.Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. 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 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
