Weather in August
Temperature
Martin, South Dakota, observes an average high-temperature of a warm 84.7°F (29.3°C) in August, barely different from 86.7°F (30.4°C) in July. Martin registers a substantial downturn from daytime peaks throughout August nights, with an average low-temperature of 63.1°F (17.3°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is computed to be a hot 86°F (30°C). When exposure and activity are sustained, they could induce fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
