Weather in August
Temperature
August's presence records an average high-temperature of a still warm 80.8°F (27.1°C), closely mirroring July's climate. Highspire in August anticipates an average nighttime temperature of 61.9°F (16.6°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). With prolonged exposure and constant activity, one might feel exhausted and experience heat cramps.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
