Weather in August
Temperature
As Littlestown, Pennsylvania, steps into August, the average high-temperature holds at a still warm 81.3°F (27.4°C), hinting at a minor fluctuation from the prior month. An average low-temperature of 63.1°F (17.3°C) is observed during the August nights.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Persisting in activity during long-term exposure might induce weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
