Weather in August
Temperature
August is the month when Fort Worth experiences its warmest temperatures, averaging a high of 95.7°F (35.4°C) and a low of 75.9°F (24.4°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
