Weather in August

The heat index value during August is computed to be a scorching 109.4°F (43°C). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.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 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
