Weather in August
Temperature
Wetonka marks the onset of August with an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 83.1°F (28.4°C), subtly divergent from July's 84.7°F (29.3°C). Following the sharp contrast to daytime warmth, an average nighttime temperature of 61°F (16.1°C) gets registered during August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
