Weather in August
Temperature
During the warmest month, August, temperatures average a high of 92.1°F (33.4°C) and a low of 72.1°F (22.3°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is estimated at a blazing hot 116.6°F (47°C). Forewarned: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Ongoing physical activity increases the likelihood of heatstroke.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
