Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Lorraine, is also a moderately hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 85.6°F (29.8°C) and 64°F (17.8°C).

Temperature

The onset of August brings an average high-temperature of a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), nearly matching the July temperature. Lorraine encounters a substantial decline from its daily high to a low-temperature of 64°F (17.8°C) during August nights.

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. 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 are extremely significant for children. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
