Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August registers at a still hot 89.1°F (31.7°C), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. An average low-temperature of 70°F (21.1°C) is observed during the August nights.Heat index
The heat index for August is appraised at an extremely hot 105.8°F (41°C). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
