Weather in August
Temperature
August, with an average high of 91.6°F (33.1°C) and a low of 72.3°F (22.4°C), signifies the warmest month of the year.Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Keep alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke is a potential danger with continued physical activity.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
