Weather in August
Temperature
Dukehurst experiences an average high-temperature of a warm 85.8°F (29.9°C) with the onset of August, subtly varied from July's 86.5°F (30.3°C). Throughout August, Dukehurst anticipates an average low-temperature of 66.6°F (19.2°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is computed to be a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
