Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August is marked by an average high-temperature of a still warm 81.5°F (27.5°C), bearing a close resemblance to July. Despite the high peak temperatures, Star City witnesses an average nighttime cooling to a mild 58.6°F (14.8°C) in August.Heat index
August's average heat index is computed to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If one continues to be active during enduring exposure, it could result in fatigue and heat cramps.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
