Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Bernice, is another hot month, with an average temperature varying between 93.7°F (34.3°C) and 72.5°F (22.5°C).

Temperature

The highest point of temperatures falls in July and August, when the average high-temperature ascends to 93.7°F (34.3°C).

Heat index

August's heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 118.4°F (48°C). Take caution: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may be imminent with ongoing effort.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. 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 inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
