Weather in August
Temperature
As August takes hold, the average high-temperature is a still hot 88.2°F (31.2°C), nearly mirroring that of the previous month. Throughout August, an average nighttime temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C) is experienced in Darlington.Heat index
The heat index in August is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
