Weather in August
Temperature

The heat index value for August is estimated at a burning hot 116.6°F (47°C). Be prepared: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Continued activity may lead to heatstroke.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
