Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Thayer, is another tropical month, with an average temperature ranging between max 87.1°F (30.6°C) and min 68°F (20°C).

Temperature

Thayer marks the onset of August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.1°F (30.6°C), a subtle shift from July's 89.2°F (31.8°C). In August, Thayer records an average nighttime temperature of 68°F (20°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are especially vital to 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.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
