Weather in August

The average heat index in August is calculated to be a torrid 100.4°F (38°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. 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.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
