Weather in August
Temperature
The transition from July to August sees an average high-temperature of a warm 85.8°F (29.9°C), indicating a minor variance from the prior month. In August, Taffy reports a consistent average low-temperature of 66.6°F (19.2°C) during the nights.Heat index
During August, the heat index is calculated to be a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Use additional protective measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible outcomes. Continuous activity might lead to heatstroke.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
