Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August sees an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.1°F (30.6°C), hardly diverging from July's 87.8°F (31°C). Nightfall in August introduces a considerable dip in temperature, settling at an average of 65.1°F (18.4°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
