Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August coincides with an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.3°F (31.3°C), indicating a minimal shift from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). Throughout August, an average nighttime temperature of 67.8°F (19.9°C) is experienced.Heat index
August's average heat index is calculated to be a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
