Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August shows a subtle variation to a still hot 87.6°F (30.9°C) from July's 89.8°F (32.1°C) in the average high-temperature. Stokesdale in August experiences a low-temperature average of 66.6°F (19.2°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 100.4°F (38°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
