Weather in August
Temperature
Alma's warmest month, August, registers temperatures that range from a high of 94.6°F (34.8°C) to a low of 73°F (22.8°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is appraised at a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
