Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August records an average high-temperature of a warm 85.1°F (29.5°C), subtly varied from July's 86.2°F (30.1°C). During August, Roachville consistently records a temperature low averaging a refreshing 65.1°F (18.4°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. 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. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
