Weather in August
Temperature
Bufford Crossroads's shift into August is marked by a subtle change to a still tropical 86.9°F (30.5°C) from July's 88.9°F (31.6°C) in temperature. Bufford Crossroads anticipates an average minimum temperature of 68.5°F (20.3°C) in the month of August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
