Weather in August
Temperature
August's presence marks an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C), subtly varied from July's 87.6°F (30.9°C). During August nights, McKnight witnesses a consistent average temperature of 67.5°F (19.7°C).Heat index
The heat index in August is estimated at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Adopt extra safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. 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 'feels like' or 'real feel', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
