Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August records an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.9°F (31.6°C), subtly varied from July's 90°F (32.2°C). An average minimum temperature of 71.6°F (22°C) marks the month of August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 105.8°F (41°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
