Weather in August
Temperature
August's commencement is accompanied by an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.5°F (31.4°C), diverging marginally from July's 90.5°F (32.5°C). Throughout August nights, Du Bose Park experiences a consistent temperature average of 71.1°F (21.7°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be an extremely hot 104°F (40°C). Take more preventive steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is elevated. Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.

Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
