Weather in August
Temperature
August's presence records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 84.4°F (29.1°C), closely mirroring July's climate. A steep decline to a refreshing 61.3°F (16.3°C) characterizes the August nights.Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Prolonged exposure combined with continuous activity could lead to exhaustion, and possibly heat cramps.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
