Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August denotes an average high-temperature of a warm 85.5°F (29.7°C), subtly different from July's 86.2°F (30.1°C). Nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 65.8°F (18.8°C) in August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
