Weather in August
Temperature
August's weather displays an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C), slightly varied from July's 82.4°F (28°C). During August, the average low-temperature is recorded at a pleasant 69.4°F (20.8°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be 84.2°F (29°C). If one endures exposure and continues to be active, it might result in tiredness and heat cramps.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
