Weather in August
Temperature
August's onset records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C), a near match to July's 85.3°F (29.6°C). Elk Valley's nights in August are distinguished by a pronounced temperature shift from the day, with an average low of 61.9°F (16.6°C).Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
