Weather in August
Temperature
Midway Park's shift into August sets the average high-temperature at a still tropical 86.9°F (30.5°C), a figure that deviates only slightly from July's 88.2°F (31.2°C). The average low-temperature during August nights is a moderately hot 73.9°F (23.3°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
Humidity
The most humid month is August, with an average relative humidity of 78%.Rainfall
August is the month with the most rainfall. Rain falls for 20.9 days and accumulates 3.62" (92mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

Sunshine
The average sunshine in August is 10.6h.UV index
The average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: The daily high UV index of 6 in August translates into this advice:
Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
