Weather in August
Temperature
River Edge marks the onset of August with an average high-temperature of a still warm 82.9°F (28.3°C), subtly divergent from July's 84.7°F (29.3°C). August witnesses an average nighttime temperature of 67.6°F (19.8°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). With constant exposure and activity, a state of weariness might ensue, leading to potential heat cramps.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
