Weather in August
Temperature
A minimal variation is noted in West Park's average high-temperature at the onset of August, reaching a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C) from July's 82.9°F (28.3°C). West Park documents a marked decrease from day to night, with an average low of 58.6°F (14.8°C) throughout August.Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at a hot 86°F (30°C). If one sustains activity during exposure, it could lead to a sense of fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
