Temperature

Temperature records mark August as the warmest month, with highs averaging 93.7°F (34.3°C) and lows at 73.9°F (23.3°C).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 109.4°F (43°C). Notice: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued strenuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
