Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August notes an average high-temperature of a warm 84.2°F (29°C), subtly shifted from July's 86.4°F (30.2°C). Throughout August, Glencross registers a consistent average low-temperature of 63.3°F (17.4°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). Extended exposure and activity might lead to tiredness, potentially resulting in heat cramps.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, 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 extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
