Weather in August
Temperature
The commencement of August introduces an average high-temperature of a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), closely mirroring the preceding month. Despite the intense daytime heat, Lorraine sustains a steady low-temperature average of 64°F (17.8°C) during August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is computed to be a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
