Weather in August
Temperature
During August, Turton observes a subtle ascent to a still warm 84.4°F (29.1°C) from July's 85.6°F (29.8°C) in the average high-temperature. During August, Turton notes a substantial drop from the daytime peak to an average minimum temperature of 61.3°F (16.3°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is calculated to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Persisting in activity during long-term exposure might induce weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. 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 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
