Weather in August
Temperature
August, having an average high-temperature of 95.5°F (35.3°C) and an average low-temperature of 75.7°F (24.3°C), is the warmest month.Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Warning: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Heatstroke is a risk with ongoing activity.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: A daily maximum UV index of 7 in August translates into the following instructions:
Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
