Weather in August
Temperature
The unfolding of August shows an average high-temperature of a still tropical 92.1°F (33.4°C), indicating a slight variance from July's 92.5°F (33.6°C). Despite drastic daytime highs, Gowen logs an average low-temperature reading of 70.3°F (21.3°C) throughout August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is evaluated at a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Forewarned: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Ongoing physical activity increases the likelihood of heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
