Weather in August
Temperature
August's presence marks an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.5°F (32.5°C), subtly varied from July's 91°F (32.8°C). The low-temperature averages to a moderately hot 74.1°F (23.4°C) during the nights of August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance 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.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.

Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. The Sun's UV radiation is most intense from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
