Weather in August
Temperature
Transitioning into August, Bowdle records an average high-temperature of a still warm 83.8°F (28.8°C), almost identical to July's 85.8°F (29.9°C). August brings with it a nighttime average temperature of 63°F (17.2°C).Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a hot 86°F (30°C). With unrelenting exposure and activity, one might experience exhaustion, leading to potential heat cramps.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. 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.
