Weather in August
Temperature
August is the month when Rotan sees the highest average temperatures, with a high of 96.4°F (35.8°C) and a low of 75.9°F (24.4°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a scorching 104°F (40°C). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
