Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 84.6°F (29.2°C), subtly diverging from July's 85.8°F (29.9°C). Vandiver encounters a steady low-temperature average of 65.5°F (18.6°C) throughout the month of August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is calculated to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
