Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature is a warm 83.8°F (28.8°C) in August, hardly different from the 86°F (30°C) recorded in July. A steady average of 62.2°F (16.8°C) throughout August in McQuire underscores a considerable divergence from the daytime high.Heat index
The average heat index in August is appraised at a hot 91.4°F (33°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. 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 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
