Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature is a still hot 88.3°F (31.3°C) in August, hardly different from the 89.2°F (31.8°C) recorded in July. The month of August records an average low-temperature of 69.4°F (20.8°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.

Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
