In August, the average heat index is computed to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Uninterrupted exposure and activity might result in fatigue, potentially causing heat cramps.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children.
