Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Morton, Texas, with an average temperature fluctuating between 91.8°F (33.2°C) and 69.6°F (20.9°C).

Temperature

The temperature hits its peak in June and August, recording an average high-temperature of 91.8°F (33.2°C).

Heat index

August's heat index is computed to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
