Weather in August
Temperature
August welcomes an average high-temperature of a still warm 82.8°F (28.2°C), not much different from the preceding month. During the month of August, an average low-temperature of 65.5°F (18.6°C) is recorded.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is evaluated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Persisting in activity during exposure could lead to weariness and subsequently to heat cramps.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
