Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 82.9°F (28.3°C), nearly matching the July temperature. Ridgeway's average low-temperature is measured at a comfortable 62.2°F (16.8°C) during August.Heat index
The heat index value for August is calculated to be 84.2°F (29°C). Persistent activity under exposure might lead to a feeling of weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.

Shun overexposure. Protection from sun ravages is indispensable. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the period of highest UV radiation. Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. Select sunglasses that boast both UVA and UVB protection to limit the adverse effects of the sun on the eyes.
