Weather in August
Temperature
August's advent denotes a minor fluctuation in the average high-temperature to a still hot 87.4°F (30.8°C) from July's 89.4°F (31.9°C). Dixon documents a significant temperature variance in August, with the mean nighttime lows settling at a comfortable 65.8°F (18.8°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
