Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August in Brandon sees a recorded average high-temperature of a still warm 80.8°F (27.1°C), showing little divergence from the previous month's conditions. During August, the average low-temperature is recorded at a mild 59.5°F (15.3°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is estimated at 84.2°F (29°C). With unrelenting exposure and activity, one might experience exhaustion, leading to potential heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
