Weather in August
Temperature
Increase indicates an average high-temperature of a still hot 91.2°F (32.9°C) in August, showing minor variation from July's 91.9°F (33.3°C). Throughout the month of August, the nighttime temperature dips to an average of 71.6°F (22°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Take caution: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may be imminent with ongoing effort.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
Humidity
In August, the average relative humidity is 74%.Rainfall
August is the month with the most rainfall. Rain falls for 19.6 days and accumulates 3.27" (83mm) of precipitation.Snowfall
In Increase, snow does not fall in March through October.Daylight
The average length of the day in August is 13h and 18min.On the first day of the month, sunrise is at 6:09 am and sunset at 7:51 pm. On the last day of August, sunrise is at 6:29 am and sunset at 7:19 pm CDT.
Sunshine
In Increase, the average sunshine in August is 10.4h.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.Note: The daily high UV index of 7 during August translates into the following recommendations:
Eschew overexposure. Those with light skin may suffer burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
