Weather in August
Temperature
August's onset sees an average high-temperature of a still hot 91.9°F (33.3°C), exhibiting a slight fluctuation from the previous month. Hooker documents a significant temperature variance in August, with the mean nighttime lows settling at an agreeable 70°F (21.1°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Ensure heightened precautions, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is significant. Sustained activity could provoke heatstroke.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, 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 are particularly important for children. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. It's wise to wear UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses when the sun shines brightly.
