Weather in August
Temperature
Monroe's transition from July to August introduces an average high-temperature of a still tropical 92.5°F (33.6°C), marking an insignificant variation from the 92.8°F (33.8°C). Throughout the nights in August, Monroe experiences an average low-temperature of 73°F (22.8°C).Heat index
August's heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Prolonged effort can result in heatstroke.Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
