Weather in August
Temperature
On the advent of August, Thornridge's average high-temperature exhibits a minor adjustment to a still moderately hot 83.1°F (28.4°C) from July's 85.5°F (29.7°C). Thornridge cools down to an average low-temperature of 66.7°F (19.3°C) throughout the month of August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). If one endures exposure and continues to be active, it might result in tiredness and heat cramps.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
