Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August reveals an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 83.5°F (28.6°C), closely mirroring July's climate. Throughout August, the average low-temperature dips to a refreshing 67.3°F (19.6°C).Heat index
August's heat index is calculated to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). With extended exposure and activity, one might feel exhausted and experience heat cramps.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
