August, the last month of the summer in Norwood, is also a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 86.5°F (30.3°C) and an average low of 66°F (18.9°C).

Temperature

Norwood experiences an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C) with the onset of August, subtly varied from July's 88°F (31.1°C). Norwood experiences an average temperature drop to an enjoyable 66°F (18.9°C) during August nights.

Heat index

August's average heat index is appraised at a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
