Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August coincides with an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 84.4°F (29.1°C), indicating a minimal shift from July's 86°F (30°C). August nights are characterized by a notable drop from daytime highs, with an average low-temperature of 61°F (16.1°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is computed to be a hot 93.2°F (34°C). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
