Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Paxton, Florida, with an average temperature ranging between min 73.6°F (23.1°C) and max 90.7°F (32.6°C).

Temperature

Paxton experiences an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.7°F (32.6°C) in August, marking an insignificant shift from 91.4°F (33°C) in July. During the nights in August, the temperature averages to a moderately hot 73.6°F (23.1°C).

Heat index

The heat index in August is appraised at a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are quite likely. Heatstroke becomes a risk with continued exertion.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. 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 largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.
