Weather in August
Temperature
As August takes hold, the average high-temperature is a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C), nearly mirroring that of the previous month. During August, Shrewsbury consistently records a temperature low averaging a refreshing 63.7°F (17.6°C).Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Staying active during long-term exposure might result in a state of exhaustion and cause heat cramps.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
