Weather in August
Temperature
August, recognised by an average high temperature of 91.4°F (33°C) and a low of 72°F (22.2°C), is Williamsburg's warmest month.Heat index
The heat index value during August is appraised at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Be cautious: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a possible consequence of continuous physical effort.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
