Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August records an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.8°F (31°C), subtly varied from July's 88.9°F (31.6°C). An average nighttime temperature of 67.3°F (19.6°C) is noted during the month of August.Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
