Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Trenton, is another tropical month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 71.2°F (21.8°C) and an average high of 90.1°F (32.3°C).

Temperature

With the onset of August, a modest change to a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C) from July's 91.4°F (33°C) is noted in high-temperature. The average temperature during August nights in Trenton is registered at an agreeable 71.2°F (21.8°C).

Heat index

The average heat index in August is evaluated at an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.
Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
