Weather in August
Temperature
August is the month that records the highest temperatures, with averages ranging from a high of 93.7°F (34.3°C) to a low of 73.4°F (23°C).Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
