Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Jenson, is another warm month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 61.3°F (16.3°C) and an average high of 84.7°F (29.3°C).

Temperature

With the onset of August, a modest change to a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C) from July's 85.1°F (29.5°C) is noted in high-temperature. Against the backdrop of high daytime temperatures, an average low-temperature of 61.3°F (16.3°C) is noted during August nights.

Heat index

In August, the average heat index is calculated to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. 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. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. 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. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
