Weather in August

As August takes hold, the average high-temperature is a still warm 82.8°F (28.2°C), nearly mirroring that of the previous month. In August, a remarkable difference from daytime highs is noted, as Hansford records an average temperature of 59.4°F (15.2°C) during the night.Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
