Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August records an average high-temperature of a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), closely related to the 87.1°F (30.6°C) observed in July. Despite the significant gap from daytime peaks, Cordell experiences an average low-temperature of 62.8°F (17.1°C) in August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
