Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August coincides with an average high-temperature of a still hot 91.4°F (33°C), indicating a minimal shift from July's 91.9°F (33.3°C). August in Springfield witnesses an average low-temperature hovering around a moderately hot 74.5°F (23.6°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 116.6°F (47°C). Remain cautious: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are foreseeable. Ongoing activity may precipitate heatstroke.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
