Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August brings with it an average high-temperature of a still warm 81.7°F (27.6°C), showing a negligible variation from the month before. An average low-temperature of 64°F (17.8°C) is expected during August.Heat index
The heat index for August is calculated to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If one continues to be active during exposure, it might cause tiredness and subsequent heat cramps.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
