Weather in August
Temperature
Temperature readings reach their annual highs in August, averaging 90°F (32.2°C) and a minimum average of 75.6°F (24.2°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is appraised at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
Humidity
July through September, with an average relative humidity of 79%, are the most humid months.Rainfall
The month with the most rainfall is August, when the rain falls for 20.6 days and typically aggregates up to 2.95" (75mm) of precipitation.Daylight

Sunshine
In August, the average sunshine is 9.7h.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are May through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: The maximum UV index, 7 during August, leads to the following recommendations:
Sustain precautions and conform to sun safety norms. Preventing sunburn is necessary. Avoid direct exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, noting that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer complete sun protection. A wide-brimmed hat provides unparalleled sun protection for sensitive areas like the eyes, ears, and neck.
