Weather in August
Temperature
Welcoming August, Mineral Point notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C), nearly consistent with July's 88.5°F (31.4°C). In Mineral Point, an average nighttime temperature of 65.5°F (18.6°C) is expected during August.Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. 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. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
