August, the last month of the summer in Avon, is another hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 90.1°F (32.3°C) and 73.8°F (23.2°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Observe: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is on the horizon with prolonged exertion.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
