Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August marks the average high-temperature at a still warm 81°F (27.2°C), differing minimally from July's 81.9°F (27.7°C). The average low-temperature reading in August for Eccles reflects a significant fall from the daytime highs, stabilizing at a moderate 57.7°F (14.3°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Exposure and extended activity could potentially cause a state of fatigue and lead to heat cramps.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
