Weather in August
Temperature
The unfolding of August shows an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), indicating a slight variance from July's 91.2°F (32.9°C). College Park's nighttime temperature in August falls to an average of 73.8°F (23.2°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is appraised at a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Precaution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are possible. Heatstroke is a serious risk with continued exertion.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
