Weather in August
Temperature
As Helens Run transitions from July to August, the average high-temperatures adjust to a still warm 82°F (27.8°C), nearly the same as the previous 83.1°F (28.4°C). Helens Run notes a substantial temperature decline from the daytime peaks throughout August, with an average nighttime temperature of 59.2°F (15.1°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If one continues to be active during exposure, it might cause tiredness and subsequent heat cramps.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
