Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August denotes an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), subtly different from July's 90.5°F (32.5°C). During August, Hills Chapel observes a consistent average nighttime temperature of 69.6°F (20.9°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
