Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August notes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.7°F (27.6°C), subtly shifted from July's 83.3°F (28.5°C). Newport, after an intense day, registers a significant cooling to an average low-temperature of 58.8°F (14.9°C) throughout August.Heat index
August's average heat index is appraised at a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
