Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Rutland, Florida, with an average temperature ranging between min 75.9°F (24.4°C) and max 90.1°F (32.3°C).

Temperature

The month of August sees the highest average temperatures, reaching 90.1°F (32.3°C) at the peak and 75.9°F (24.4°C) at the low.

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
