Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Peace Valley, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 87.6°F (30.9°C) and 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Temperature

The transition into August marks the average high-temperature at a still hot 87.6°F (30.9°C), differing minimally from July's 88.9°F (31.6°C). With a notable difference from peak temperatures, an average of 65.8°F (18.8°C) marks the nights in August.

Heat index

The heat index value during August is calculated to be a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Take more preventive steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is elevated. Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
