Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August registers at a still tropical 87.8°F (31°C), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. Throughout the August nights, Woodleaf encounters a low-temperature of 66.7°F (19.3°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is computed to be a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. 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 of high significance for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
