Weather in August
Temperature
August's weather records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 82.8°F (28.2°C), showing little deviation from July. In August, the temperature registers a significant dip to an average of 58.8°F (14.9°C) at night.Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Continuing activity during long-lasting exposure might induce tiredness and result in heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
