Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, the average high-temperature stands at a warm 84.9°F (29.4°C), closely aligned with July's 86°F (30°C). An average low-temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C) is noted during the nights in August.Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
