Weather in August

The transition into August marks the average high-temperature at a still hot 90°F (32.2°C), differing minimally from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). Pope in August experiences a low-temperature average of 70.7°F (21.5°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is calculated to be an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. 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 'apparent temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
