Weather in August
Temperature
Sunflower observes an average high-temperature of a still hot 92.1°F (33.4°C) in August, barely different from 92.5°F (33.6°C) in July. Sunflower records an average temperature drop to an agreeable 72.3°F (22.4°C) in August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 116.6°F (47°C). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
