Weather in August
Temperature
Newcastle records a slight change with August's average high-temperatures adjusting to a still moderately hot 82.4°F (28°C) from July's 84.4°F (29.1°C). Newcastle, in the month of August, anticipates a consistent average low-temperature of 61.3°F (16.3°C).Heat index
In August, the average heat index is appraised at a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
