Weather in August
Temperature
The introduction of August sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.9°F (31.6°C), hardly deviating from July. Foreston's temperature drops to an average low of 71.8°F (22.1°C) during the nights of August.Heat index
August's average heat index is calculated to be an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Use additional protective measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible outcomes. Continuous activity might lead to heatstroke.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
