Weather in August
Temperature
Presho indicates an average high-temperature of a still hot 86°F (30°C) in August, showing minor variation from July's 88.7°F (31.5°C). In Presho, August's nights observe an average temperature dip to a refreshing 65.5°F (18.6°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is calculated to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Persisting in activity during long-term exposure might induce weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
