Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August marks the average high-temperature at a still hot 89.1°F (31.7°C), differing minimally from July's 91.9°F (33.3°C). A steady average of 66.2°F (19°C) throughout August in Herndon underscores a considerable divergence from the daytime high.Heat index
The heat index value during August is calculated to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Incorporate additional safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Long-term activity may induce heatstroke.Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
