August, the last month of the summer in Walnut, is also a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 67.6°F (19.8°C) and an average high of 86.5°F (30.3°C).

Temperature

The introduction of August notes a subtle temperature variation to a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C) from July's 88.2°F (31.2°C). During August nights, Walnut records an average temperature of 67.6°F (19.8°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is appraised at a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
