Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August shows a subtle variation to a still moderately hot 84.2°F (29°C) from July's 85.6°F (29.8°C) in the average high-temperature. During August, the nighttime temperature presents a clear descent from the daily peaks, falling to an average of 61.3°F (16.3°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is calculated to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Exhaustion is likely with prolonged exposure and activity. Sustaining activity may result in heat cramps.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
