Weather in August
Temperature
With average temperatures fluctuating between a high of 95.5°F (35.3°C) and a low of 74.8°F (23.8°C), August stands out as the warmest month.Heat index
August's average heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
