Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August registers at a still hot 90.3°F (32.4°C), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. August nights are marked by an average temperature drop to an agreeable 70.9°F (21.6°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Mindful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are to be expected. Extended physical effort might result in heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. 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 importance for children. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
