Weather in August
Temperature
Syracuse's weather in August, with an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.8°F (29.9°C), subtly shifts from July's 87.4°F (30.8°C). In the month of August, Syracuse's average low-temperature falls to a comfortable 65.8°F (18.8°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is estimated at a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
