Temperature
In August, Somerset notes an average high-temperature of a still warm 82°F (27.8°C), hardly different from the preceding month. During August, Somerset records an average temperature of 61.5°F (16.4°C) at night.Heat index
During August, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Exhaustion might be the outcome of enduring exposure and continuous activity, with a risk of heat cramps.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light 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 'felt air temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
