Weather in August
Temperature
Saranac's transition from July to August introduces an average high-temperature of a still tropical 91°F (32.8°C), marking an insignificant variation from the 91.2°F (32.9°C). In Saranac, August nights cool down to an average of 73°F (22.8°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is appraised at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
