Weather in August
Temperature
August's weather records an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.3°F (32.4°C), showing little deviation from July. Bascom records a steady low-temperature average of 74.5°F (23.6°C) during August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 113°F (45°C). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
