Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August is a still hot 91.4°F (33°C), almost matching the conditions of the preceding month. An average nighttime temperature of 74.7°F (23.7°C) is recorded in Council during August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is estimated at a burning hot 116.6°F (47°C). Forewarned: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Ongoing physical activity increases the likelihood of heatstroke.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. 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. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.

A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: During August, 7 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Limit your exposure to the sun's UV radiation, which is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and note that parasols or canopies may not provide full sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
