Weather in August

Heat index

In August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
Heat index specifics point out values are for conditions of shade and a slight breeze. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital 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.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
