Weather in August
Temperature
At the start of August, Sand Fork's average high-temperature reaches a warm 85.3°F (29.6°C), subtly different from the preceding month. Nighttime temperatures in Sand Fork exhibit a substantial dip from daytime highs during August, averaging at a refreshing 62.6°F (17°C).Heat index
August's heat index is estimated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. 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 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
