Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August marks a slight shift to an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90°F (32.2°C) from July's 90.5°F (32.5°C). Throughout August, Delta City witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 72.3°F (22.4°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is evaluated at an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Mindful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are to be expected. Extended physical effort might result in heatstroke.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. 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 extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
