Weather in August
Temperature
August's presence records an average high-temperature of a still hot 86.7°F (30.4°C), closely mirroring July's climate. Throughout the nights in August, an average low-temperature of 67.5°F (19.7°C) is noted.Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at a torrid 100.4°F (38°C). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
