Weather in August
Temperature
Flora ushers in August with an average high-temperature of a still hot 91°F (32.8°C), showing a close resemblance to the previous month. Nightly temperatures drop to an average low of 72.1°F (22.3°C) in August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Heed: Expect heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continued action may cause heatstroke.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

The months with the highest UV index are June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.Note: The UV index of 7 during August leads to these advisories:
Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. In the presence of strong sunlight, it's crucial to wear sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays.
