Weather in August
Temperature
In August, the average high-temperature registers at a still warm 81.9°F (27.7°C), nearly identical to July's 82°F (27.8°C). Despite the intense daytime heat, Goldendale sustains a steady low-temperature average of 55.9°F (13.3°C) during August.Heat index
August's average heat index is estimated at 82.4°F (28°C). Constant exposure and activity lead to possible fatigue. Prolonged exercise may result in heat cramps.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
