Weather in August
Temperature
August's weather displays an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), slightly varied from July's 90.5°F (32.5°C). Ranchvale documents a substantial shift from daytime warmth, recording an average nighttime temperature of 68.2°F (20.1°C) in August.Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a hot 93.2°F (34°C). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
