Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August denotes a barely perceptible change in the average high-temperatures to a still tropical 87.4°F (30.8°C) from July's 90°F (32.2°C). Nightly temperatures in Palmer Springs drop to an average low of 67.6°F (19.8°C) in August.Heat index
The heat index value during August is calculated to be a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Adopt extra safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. 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.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
