Weather in August
Temperature
As Red House welcomes August, the average high-temperature is noted at a warm 85.5°F (29.7°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. August nights report a substantial dip from daytime highs to an average of 62.6°F (17°C).Heat index
August's heat index is estimated at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
