Weather in August
Temperature
Langley Park starts August with an average high-temperature of a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), a minor shift from July's 87.4°F (30.8°C). Langley Park's average low-temperature during August nights is observed to be an agreeable 68.2°F (20.1°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
