Weather in August
Temperature
As July transitions into August, Laquey records an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.3°F (30.7°C), showing a gentle shift from the preceding month. August nights cool down to an average low-temperature of 65.8°F (18.8°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at a fiery hot 100.4°F (38°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. 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 particularly important for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: The daily high UV index of 6 during August translates into the following recommendations:
Deflect overexposure. Sun protection is a necessity. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
