Weather in August
Temperature
Cogswell starts August with an average high-temperature of a warm 85.1°F (29.5°C), hinting at a minimal fluctuation from July. Cogswell records a marked daily temperature contrast, with an average low-temperature of 62.6°F (17°C) during the nights of August.Heat index
The heat index value for August is computed to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
