Weather in August
Temperature
The introduction of August notes a subtle temperature variation to a hot 94.1°F (34.5°C) from July's 95.2°F (35.1°C). August nights in Bessie cool down to an average low-temperature of 72.9°F (22.7°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 104°F (40°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Sunshine

June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: During August, 7 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Fend off overexposure. Sun protection is vital. Remember that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure.
