Weather in August
Temperature
As Palco steps into August, the average high-temperature is measured at a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), displaying minor differences from July's 93°F (33.9°C). During August, Palco notes a substantial drop from the daytime peak to an average minimum temperature of 67.5°F (19.7°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
