Weather in August
Temperature
August is the month when Ethel experiences its warmest temperatures, averaging a high of 92.8°F (33.8°C) and a low of 71.4°F (21.9°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Watchful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are predicted. Continued exertion could lead to heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Guard oneself from overexposure. Defence against sun injury is vital. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. Boost your sun resistance with garments that are densely woven yet spacious.
