Weather in August
Temperature

For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a scorching 109.4°F (43°C). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
