Weather in August
Temperature
Morris witnesses the warmest weather in August, with temperatures averaging a high of 91.4°F (33°C) and a low of 72.5°F (22.5°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is appraised at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Mind: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are anticipated. Heatstroke can develop with continued physical activity.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

Stick with precautions and abide by sun safety procedures. Evading sunburn is essential. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
