Weather in August
Temperature
August's onset records a minor alteration in the average high-temperature to a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C) from July's 91.9°F (33.3°C). Saint Phillips reports an average nighttime low-temperature of 70°F (21.1°C) in August.Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. 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.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
