August, the last month of the summer in Aldie, is another warm month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 85.6°F (29.8°C) and 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Temperature

August notes an average high-temperature of a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), subtly differing from July's 88.2°F (31.2°C). In the month of August, the nighttime temperature dips to a steady average of 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Heat index

The heat index in August is calculated to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
