Weather in August

In Dougherty, August's average high-temperature stands at a still tropical 92.3°F (33.5°C), closely related to the preceding month. Despite a significant disparity with daytime temperatures, an average low-temperature of 70.5°F (21.4°C) is recorded in Dougherty during August.Heat index
The heat index in August is calculated to be a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
