Weather in August
Temperature
Silver Ridge's weather in August indicates an average high-temperature of a still hot 86.7°F (30.4°C), nearly consistent with the 87.4°F (30.8°C) of July. Silver Ridge observes a noteworthy temperature drop from the daily highs during August nights, with a mean temperature of 64.2°F (17.9°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
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. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
