Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August sees the average high-temperature at a still warm 82.2°F (27.9°C), subtly shifted from July's 83.3°F (28.5°C). Palmyra experiences a nighttime temperature average of 64.9°F (18.3°C) during August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). With sustained exposure and activity, exhaustion becomes probable, resulting in heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
