Weather in August
Temperature
The beginning of August reveals an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.6°F (30.9°C), showing minimal deviation from the previous month. Ammon's average low-temperature for the month of August records at an agreeable 68°F (20°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. 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 body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.

Sunshine

The months with the highest UV index are May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: The average daily UV index of 6 in August transforms into the following instructions:
Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
