Weather in August
Temperature
The dawn of August sees an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 82°F (27.8°C), subtly contrasting with July's 83.5°F (28.6°C). During August, Wolford detects a significant contrast from its daytime temperatures, with nights averaging at a mild 58.5°F (14.7°C).Heat index
August's heat index is computed to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If exposure and activity persist, fatigue could ensue, possibly leading to heat cramps.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
