Weather in August
Temperature
Witten transitions into August recording an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.8°F (29.9°C), closely aligning with the preceding month's temperature. Against the backdrop of high daytime temperatures, an average low-temperature of 63.9°F (17.7°C) is noted during August nights.Heat index
The heat index value during August is calculated to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.

A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: In August, the average maximum UV index of 6 translates into the following recommendations:
Eschew overexposure. Those with light skin may suffer burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Limit direct sun exposure especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
