Weather in August
Temperature
Sylvester's warmest months, July and August, record an average high-temperature of 89.1°F (31.7°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 107.6°F (42°C). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
