August brings the highest temperatures, with an average high of 89.2°F (31.8°C) and an average low of 77.7°F (25.4°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
