Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Enterprise, is another tropical month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 71.8°F (22.1°C) and 91.4°F (33°C).

Temperature

With the onset of August, Enterprise's average high-temperature clocks in at a still tropical 91.4°F (33°C), showing a minor fluctuation from the previous month. August's nights observe an average temperature of 71.8°F (22.1°C).

Heat index

The heat index value during August is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Notice: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued strenuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

Use protective steps and abide by sun safety guidelines. Safeguarding against skin and eye harm is necessary. Stay out of direct sunlight and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest, but remember that shade devices may not offer full sun protection. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
