Weather in August
Temperature
As August takes hold, the average high-temperature is a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), nearly mirroring that of the previous month. During August, the nighttime temperature averages of 69.8°F (21°C).Heat index
In August, the average heat index is estimated at a scorching 107.6°F (42°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
