Weather in August
Temperature
July's transformation into August witnesses an average high-temperature of a still warm 83.1°F (28.4°C), noting a minor change from the preceding month. An average low-temperature of 62.2°F (16.8°C) is noted during the month of August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Prolonged activity during exposure might result in a state of fatigue and cause heat cramps.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
