Weather in August
Temperature
August proves to be the warmest month, recording an average peak temperature of 90.7°F (32.6°C) and a minimum temperature of 75.6°F (24.2°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is estimated at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. For effective sun eye protection, rely on sunglasses certified for UVA and UVB resistance.
