Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C), nearly matching the July temperature. During August, the nighttime temperature presents a clear descent from the daily peaks, falling to an average of 58.8°F (14.9°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is computed to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
