Weather in August
Temperature
On the advent of August, Duquesne's average high-temperature exhibits a minor adjustment to a still warm 81.9°F (27.7°C) from July's 83.3°F (28.5°C). Duquesne encounters an average low-temperature of 61°F (16.1°C) during August nights.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Staying active during long-term exposure might result in a state of exhaustion and cause heat cramps.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
