Weather in August
Temperature
Stepping into August, Socorro records an average high-temperature of a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), almost consistent with July. An average low-temperature of 67.5°F (19.7°C) is recorded during the nights in August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a hot 86°F (30°C). If one continues to be active during enduring exposure, it could result in fatigue and heat cramps.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.

Undertake protective measures and comply with sun safety rules. Shielding against skin and eye damage is essential. 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. Boost your sun resistance with garments that are densely woven yet spacious.
