Weather in August
Temperature
Oberlin's August weather, marked by an average high temperature of 91.4°F (33°C) and an average low temperature of 73.9°F (23.3°C), is the warmest in the year.Heat index
August's mean heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 116.6°F (47°C). Be wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are highly anticipated. With continued activity, heatstroke is very likely.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
