Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August denotes a barely perceptible change in the average high-temperatures to a still hot 88.3°F (31.3°C) from July's 90.3°F (32.4°C). Sunnyside Acres records an average temperature drop to a refreshing 67.6°F (19.8°C) in August.Heat index
August's average heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. 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 particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. 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.
