August, the last month of the summer in Silverton, is another hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 68.7°F (20.4°C) and 91.4°F (33°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is evaluated at a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Incorporate additional safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Long-term activity may induce heatstroke.
Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
