Weather in August
Temperature
Rockland's August reports an average high-temperature of a still hot 86.7°F (30.4°C), exhibiting a minor difference from July. In Rockland, the average low-temperature during the month of August is an agreeable 68°F (20°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
