Weather in August
Temperature
Sanderson experiences a transition to a still tropical 93.6°F (34.2°C) in average high-temperatures with the arrival of August, not greatly differing from July's 92.8°F (33.8°C). During August, the average low-temperature is a warm 75.4°F (24.1°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. 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 especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. 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. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

In Sanderson, during August, the rain falls for 8.3 days and regularly aggregates up to 1.02" (26mm) of precipitation. In Sanderson, during the entire year, the rain falls for 79.5 days and collects up to 9.8" (249mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

Sunshine
In Sanderson, the average sunshine in August is 9.8h.UV index
May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index in Sanderson. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in August leads to these recommendations:
Avoid overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can burn in under 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
