Weather in August
Temperature
August's arrival registers an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.9°F (30.5°C), closely aligning with the temperature of the previous month. Spring Grove encounters an average low-temperature of 68.4°F (20.2°C) during August nights.Heat index
The heat index in August is calculated to be a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
