Weather in August
Temperature
Morven experiences a transition to a still hot 89.1°F (31.7°C) in average high-temperatures with the arrival of August, not greatly differing from July's 91°F (32.8°C). Morven anticipates an average minimum temperature of 70°F (21.1°C) in the month of August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 105.8°F (41°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

In August, the average daily maximum UV index is 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: A maximum high UV index of 6 in August translates into the following recommendations:
Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Enhance your sun protection with tightly woven, yet airy clothing.
