The beginning of August reveals an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 82.2°F (27.9°C), showing minimal deviation from the previous month. Throughout August, Altona registers a consistent average low-temperature of 61.5°F (16.4°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is evaluated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). When exposure and activity are sustained, they could induce fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
