Weather in August
Temperature
The average temperatures reach their apex in August, averaging 91.8°F (33.2°C) at the high end and 73°F (22.8°C) at the low end.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. 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.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
