Weather in August
Temperature
Westpoint's shift from July to August is accompanied by an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.6°F (30.9°C), a slight deviation from 88.2°F (31.2°C). During August, Westpoint sees a mean low-temperature of 68.5°F (20.3°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 102.2°F (39°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to 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.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
