Weather in August
Temperature
August's onset records an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.1°F (30.6°C), a near match to July's 87.6°F (30.9°C). Bells witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 68.9°F (20.5°C) throughout August.Heat index
The heat index value during August is estimated at a fiery hot 100.4°F (38°C). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
