Weather in August
Temperature
August ushers in an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C), aligning closely with the preceding month. The mean low-temperature during August nights is a comfortable 65.8°F (18.8°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is calculated to be a fiery hot 95°F (35°C). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: The UV index of 6 during August leads to these advisories:
Employ safeguards and advocate sun safety protocols. Shielding against skin and eye damage is crucial. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
