Weather in August
Temperature
Newtown's shift into August is marked by a subtle change to a still warm 83.3°F (28.5°C) from July's 85.6°F (29.8°C) in temperature. Newtown observes an average nighttime low-temperature of 66.2°F (19°C) during the month of August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Fatigue might occur with continuous exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
