Weather in August
Temperature
Hamilton experiences a recorded average high-temperature of a still hot 91°F (32.8°C) in August, closely aligned with July's 91.4°F (33°C). An average nighttime temperature of 71.1°F (21.7°C) is recorded in Hamilton during August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is computed to be a scorching 111.2°F (44°C). Keep on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a possible danger with ongoing physical activity.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
