Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August records an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.3°F (31.3°C), closely related to the 89.4°F (31.9°C) observed in July. During the August nights, an average temperature of 69.6°F (20.9°C) is observed in Dresden.Heat index
The heat index for August is appraised at a scorching 104°F (40°C). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. 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.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
