Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Lakeshore, is another tropical month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 92.5°F (33.6°C) and 73°F (22.8°C).

The dawn of August sees an average high-temperature of a still hot 92.5°F (33.6°C), subtly contrasting with July's 92.8°F (33.8°C). Lakeshore's nighttime temperature during August is consistently averaged at a pleasant 73°F (22.8°C).

Heat index

In August, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Stay vigilant: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke may follow prolonged exertion.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. 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 hold great significance to children. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. 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. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
