Weather in August
Temperature
In Princeton, August records the highest average temperatures, peaking at 88.9°F (31.6°C) and reaching a low of 81.7°F (27.6°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is computed to be a blistering 104°F (40°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. 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 highly important for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
Humidity
In Princeton, the average relative humidity in August is 71%.Rainfall
The month with the most rainfall in Princeton is August, when the rain falls for 26.8 days and typically aggregates up to 6.77" (172mm) of precipitation.Daylight

Sunshine

The months with the highest UV index are April through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in August leads to these recommendations:
Steer clear of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can be scorched in less than 20 minutes. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., UV radiation is strongest. Make an effort to avoid direct sunlight during this time, remembering that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. It's wise to wear UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses when the sun shines brightly.
