Weather in August
Temperature
In Prairie Lea, August is identified by the highest average temperatures, reaching a peak of 96.8°F (36°C) and a low of 75.6°F (24.2°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 122°F (50°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
