Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August is marked with an average high-temperature of a still warm 83.1°F (28.4°C), showing an insignificant shift from July's 85.8°F (29.9°C). Despite considerable daily temperature swings, a steady low-temperature average of 61.5°F (16.4°C) is noted throughout August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at 84.2°F (29°C). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to 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.
