Weather in August
Temperature
Wellington sees the arrival of August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 91°F (32.8°C), indicating a subtle variation from July. Wellington's temperature tends to fall to an average low of 70.3°F (21.3°C) during the nights of August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a scorching 104°F (40°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
