Weather in August
Temperature
The Colony's warmest temperatures are experienced in August, with average high temperatures of 95.9°F (35.5°C) and lows of 76.6°F (24.8°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is estimated at a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
Humidity
The least humid month is August, with an average relative humidity of 55%.Rainfall
In August, the rain falls for 11.7 days. Throughout August, 2.24" (57mm) of precipitation is accumulated. In The Colony, during the entire year, the rain falls for 135 days and collects up to 29.65" (753mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

The average length of the day in August is 13h and 20min.On the first day of the month, sunrise is at 6:41 am and sunset at 8:26 pm. On the last day of August, sunrise is at 7:01 am and sunset at 7:53 pm CDT.
Sunshine
The month with the most sunshine is August, with an average of 11.1h of sunshine.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: The maximum UV index, 7 during August, leads to the following recommendations:
Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
