Temperature

The onset of August brings with it an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C), showing a negligible variation from the month before. Throughout August, Sellers witnesses a nighttime temperature average of 71.4°F (21.9°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is computed to be a scorching 105.8°F (41°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. 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 primarily vital for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
