Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August presents an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.9°F (30.5°C), maintaining a close correlation with the preceding month. Lincoln Heights observes an average low-temperature of 68.5°F (20.3°C) during August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 100.4°F (38°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
