The advent of August signifies a minor shift to an average high-temperature of a warm 85.5°F (29.7°C), aligning closely with July. Rock Springs's nighttime temperatures in August reflect a stark contrast to the day's highs, falling to an average low of 62.6°F (17°C).

Heat index

August's average heat index is computed to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
