Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.3°F (27.4°C), closely following the temperature pattern of July. Esopus registers a pronounced decline from daytime peak temperatures, averaging a refreshing 58.8°F (14.9°C) lows in August.Heat index
August's heat index is estimated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Continuous activity in exposure could lead to a feeling of fatigue and heat cramps.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
