Weather in August
Temperature
Pleasant Garden marks the onset of August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.4°F (30.8°C), a subtle shift from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). Throughout the month of August, the average temperature dips to a refreshing 67.3°F (19.6°C) at night.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 100.4°F (38°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
