Weather in August
Temperature
August temperatures tend to peak at an average high of 90.7°F (32.6°C) and dip to a low of 73.8°F (23.2°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is estimated at a burning hot 116.6°F (47°C). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
