Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August shows a subtle variation to a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C) from July's 85.8°F (29.9°C) in the average high-temperature. Earling documents a marked decrease from day to night, with an average low of 60.6°F (15.9°C) throughout August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is computed to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.

The months with the highest UV index in Earling are May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: The daily high UV index of 6 in August translates into this advice:
Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. The Sun's UV radiation is at its strongest between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Minimize direct exposure to the sun during this period. On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
