Weather in August
Temperature
Edison's weather in August indicates an average high-temperature of a still hot 86.5°F (30.3°C), nearly consistent with the 88.3°F (31.3°C) of July. In August, a remarkable difference from daytime highs is noted, as Edison records an average temperature of 63.5°F (17.5°C) during the night.Heat index
The average heat index in August is appraised at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Emphasize additional safety, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is high. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: The maximum daily UV index of 6 in August interprets into the following recommendations:
Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. Always opt for UVA and UVB-resistant sunglasses on radiant days.
