Weather in August
Temperature
August proves to be the warmest month, recording an average peak temperature of 93.7°F (34.3°C) and a minimum temperature of 76.5°F (24.7°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 120.2°F (49°C). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
