Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature is a still tropical 94.3°F (34.6°C) in August, hardly different from the 94.6°F (34.8°C) recorded in July. The average low-temperature, in August, in Creston, is an agreeable 73°F (22.8°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 120.2°F (49°C). Be prepared: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Continued activity may lead to heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. Combat UV radiation's detrimental effects with sun-safe clothing and UV-blocking eyewear.
