Weather in August
Temperature
Temperature readings reach their annual highs in August, averaging 95.2°F (35.1°C) and a minimum average of 75.6°F (24.2°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
