Weather in August
Temperature
As Gibbon welcomes August, the average high-temperature is noted at a still hot 91.9°F (33.3°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. Throughout the month of August, Gibbon expects an average low of 71.6°F (22°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Undertake special precautions, the probability of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Prolonged activity may provoke heatstroke.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
