Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Woodland, is also a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 90.3°F (32.4°C) and an average low of 70.9°F (21.6°C).

Temperature

The advent of August brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.3°F (32.4°C), almost identical to the preceding month. During the nights in August, an average low-temperature of 70.9°F (21.6°C) is observed.

Heat index

For August, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 109.4°F (43°C). Precaution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are possible. Heatstroke is a serious risk with continued exertion.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
