Weather in August
Temperature
August records an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.5°F (29.7°C), indicating a minor variation from the preceding month. Jeptha anticipates a stark contrast in temperature during August nights, with an average low of 62.8°F (17.1°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
