Weather in August
Temperature
In August, Granville experiences a barely noticeable shift in meteorological conditions, with average high-temperatures moving from 86.9°F (30.5°C) in July to a still tropical 86°F (30°C). In Granville, an average temperature of 65.8°F (18.8°C) is noted during August nights.Heat index
The average heat index in August is appraised at a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for 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.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
