Weather in August

With the onset of August, the average high-temperature stands at a still moderately hot 83.5°F (28.6°C), closely aligned with July's 85.1°F (29.5°C). Atkinson's average low-temperature during August nights is observed to be an enjoyable 62.6°F (17°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Persisting in activity during long-term exposure might induce weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
