Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August is a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), almost matching the conditions of the preceding month. Gilead experiences a nighttime temperature average of 64.2°F (17.9°C) during August.Heat index
The heat index for August is appraised at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
