Weather in August
Temperature
An average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C) marks August, exhibiting a close resemblance to the conditions in July. The average temperature during August nights dips to an enjoyable 65.1°F (18.4°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Heightened precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

The months with the highest UV index are May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: The maximum UV index of 6 during August leads to these instructions:
Sustain precautions and conform to sun safety norms. Preventing sunburn is necessary. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Clothes that are both tight-knit and comfortably loose are prime choices for sun protection.
