Weather in August
Temperature
August, with its average high-temperature of 96.8°F (36°C) and an average low-temperature of 75.6°F (24.2°C), holds the record as the warmest month.Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 122°F (50°C). Beware: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are on the cards. Heatstroke could result from sustained physical activity.Heat index specifics point out values are for conditions of shade and a slight breeze. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
