Weather in August
Temperature
The start of August marks an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.7°F (27.6°C), hardly distinguishable from the conditions in July. Throughout August, Hurley anticipates an average low-temperature of 60.4°F (15.8°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). Ongoing activity coupled with exposure often results in weariness and could induce heat cramps.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
