Weather in August
Temperature
The transition from July to August sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still moderately hot 82.4°F (28°C), from a not significantly different 84.7°F (29.3°C). Kennett Square witnesses an average low-temperature of 65.7°F (18.7°C) throughout the month of August.Heat index
The heat index value during August is estimated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Extended exposure and activity might lead to tiredness, potentially resulting in heat cramps.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
