Weather in August
Temperature
With average temperatures fluctuating between a high of 96.3°F (35.7°C) and a low of 74.1°F (23.4°C), August stands out as the warmest month.Heat index
August's heat index is calculated to be a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
