Weather in August
Temperature
As July transitions into August, the average high-temperature rests at a still hot 87.3°F (30.7°C), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. Throughout August, the temperature falls to an average low of 68°F (20°C).Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
