Weather in August
Temperature
August's onset records a minor alteration in the average high-temperature to a still hot 86.2°F (30.1°C) from July's 87.8°F (31°C). Mapaville observes an average low-temperature of 66.7°F (19.3°C) during August.Heat index
August's heat index is computed to be a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.

Sunshine
The average sunshine in August is 10.2h.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.Note: The average daily UV index of 6 in August transforms into the following instructions:
Fend off overexposure. Sun protection is vital. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
