Weather in August
Temperature
In August, Van notes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 82.8°F (28.2°C), hardly different from the preceding month. Van sees a major change from daytime highs, with the nighttime temperature dipping to a moderate 59.5°F (15.3°C) on average during August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is computed to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). If one sustains activity during exposure, it could lead to a sense of fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
