Weather in August
Temperature
August is the warmest month, with an average high-temperature of 94.3°F (34.6°C) and an average low-temperature of 74.8°F (23.8°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is calculated to be a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Take note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke can occur with prolonged effort.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. 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 extremely significant for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
