Weather in August
Temperature
A minor adjustment in Burton's average high-temperature is noted with the start of August, touching a moderately hot 85.8°F (29.9°C) from July's 86.5°F (30.3°C). In the month of August, the nighttime temperature dips to a steady average of 65.1°F (18.4°C).Heat index
The heat index in August is calculated to be a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
