With the onset of August, the average high-temperature stands at a still moderately hot 82°F (27.8°C), closely aligned with July's 84°F (28.9°C). Verplanck's average low-temperature is measured at a comfortable 62.6°F (17°C) during August.Heat index
The heat index for August is evaluated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). A sense of exhaustion might occur with extended exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
