Weather in August
Temperature
August's beginning signals an average high-temperature of a warm 83.3°F (28.5°C), barely different from July's 86.2°F (30.1°C). In August, Oreland records an average nighttime temperature of 66.7°F (19.3°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is evaluated at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
