Weather in August
Temperature
In DeSoto, the highest average temperatures are observed in August, with a high of 95.9°F (35.5°C) and a low of 76.8°F (24.9°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Take note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke can occur with prolonged effort.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. 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. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. 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. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
