Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.9°F (27.7°C), closely related to the 83.1°F (28.4°C) observed in July. An average low-temperature of 60.4°F (15.8°C) is common during the nights of August.Heat index
August's average heat index is appraised at 82.4°F (28°C). If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light 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', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
