Weather in August
Temperature
August's climate shows a minor adjustment in average high-temperatures to a still hot 89.2°F (31.8°C) from July's 91.2°F (32.9°C). The temperature dips to an average of 68.5°F (20.3°C) during August nights.Heat index
For August, the heat index is calculated to be a blistering 105.8°F (41°C). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
