Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, the average high-temperature registers at a still hot 86.2°F (30.1°C), subtly different from July's 86.5°F (30.3°C). A noticeable temperature swing characterizes Norris's August nights, dipping to an average of 63.1°F (17.3°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is appraised at a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical 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.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
