Weather in August
Temperature
The commencement of August brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.3°F (30.7°C), marking an inconsequential divergence from July. In August, Scarboro experiences a significant drop from daily zeniths to an average nighttime temperature of 64.4°F (18°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is evaluated at a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
