Weather in August
Temperature
August is the warmest month, with the temperature often reaching an average high of 89.6°F (32°C) and an average low of 76.6°F (24.8°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Be alert: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a threat with sustained physical activity.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them 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 extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
