August, the last month of the summer in Reid Camp, is another warm month, with an average temperature varying between 63.9°F (17.7°C) and 85.5°F (29.7°C).

Temperature

The arrival of August marks a slight shift to an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.5°F (29.7°C) from July's 86.4°F (30.2°C). Reid Camp, in the heat of August, registers a significant plunge to a mean of 63.9°F (17.7°C) during the nights.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
