New Braunfels in August continues to be in the grasp of summer, although slight moderations in the harshness of the climate are noted. The mercury drops a bit when compared to July's extreme, settling to a bearable average high of 96.3°F (35.7°C). Significantly low precipitation levels help in keeping the scorch under control.

In New Braunfels, the peak average temperatures are observed in August, with a high of 96.3°F (35.7°C) and a low of 74.8°F (23.8°C).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 118.4°F (48°C). Watchful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are predicted. Continued exertion could lead to heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
