Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August sees the average high-temperature at a moderately hot 84.9°F (29.4°C), subtly shifted from July's 86°F (30°C). August in McMinnville sees the temperature falling to a mean low of 64.9°F (18.3°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of 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 primarily vital for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
