Weather in August
Temperature
August records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C), indicating a minor variation from the preceding month. Despite drastic daytime highs, Huff Junction logs an average low-temperature reading of 60.6°F (15.9°C) throughout August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 95°F (35°C). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
