Weather in August
Temperature
As Spring Lake transitions from July to August, the average high-temperatures adjust to a still hot 87.8°F (31°C), nearly the same as the previous 90°F (32.2°C). Throughout August, the temperature falls to an average low of 70.5°F (21.4°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at a fiery hot 102.2°F (39°C). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital 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.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.

Sunshine

The average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: In August, the maximum UV index of 6 translates into these guidelines:
Stand by precautions and apply sun safety measures. Evading sunburn is of great importance. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
