Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August finds Hurley at an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.7°F (27.6°C), closely comparable to July's conditions. Throughout August, Hurley's nights cool down to an average of 60.4°F (15.8°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). Long-standing exposure coupled with ongoing activity could result in exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
