Weather in August
Temperature
The shift to August signals an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 83.1°F (28.4°C), subtly varied from July's 85.5°F (29.7°C). Fairless Junction records a mean low-temperature of 66.7°F (19.3°C) in August.Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). A sense of exhaustion might occur with extended exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
