Weather in August
Temperature
August is the warmest month, exhibiting average temperatures of 95°F (35°C) at the peak and 73.2°F (22.9°C) at the base.Heat index
The heat index in August is estimated at a burning hot 122°F (50°C). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
