Weather in August
Temperature
Burtville marks the arrival of August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 91.2°F (32.9°C), hardly different from July's 91.6°F (33.1°C). Burtville experiences a steady low-temperature of 74.7°F (23.7°C) throughout August.Heat index
The heat index in August is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 116.6°F (47°C). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
