Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August shows a subtle variation to a still hot 91.6°F (33.1°C) from July's 93.7°F (34.3°C) in the average high-temperature. August sees the temperature falling to a mean low of 71.1°F (21.7°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 105.8°F (41°C). Incorporate additional preventive steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
