Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Thurman, is another hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 88.5°F (31.4°C) and min 68.9°F (20.5°C).

Temperature

The transition into August shows a subtle variation to a still tropical 88.5°F (31.4°C) from July's 89.2°F (31.8°C) in the average high-temperature. An average low-temperature of 68.9°F (20.5°C) marks the month of August.

Heat index

August's heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. 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 'apparent temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
