Weather in August
Temperature
During August, Anton observes a subtle ascent to a warm 85.1°F (29.5°C) from July's 86.2°F (30.1°C) in the average high-temperature. Nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 66.7°F (19.3°C) in August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Adopt extra safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
