Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Rugby, is also a moderately hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 84.7°F (29.3°C) and an average low of 63.3°F (17.4°C).

Temperature

In August, the average high-temperature registers at a still warm 84.7°F (29.3°C), nearly identical to July's 85.6°F (29.8°C). Rugby's nighttime temperature during August is consistently averaged at a comfortable 63.3°F (17.4°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is estimated at a torrid 95°F (35°C). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. 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 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
