Weather in August
Temperature
August's advent denotes a minor fluctuation in the average high-temperature to a still tropical 86.2°F (30.1°C) from July's 88.5°F (31.4°C). A sharp divergence from daytime highs is noted in Atwood during the month of August, with the average nighttime temperature settling at an enjoyable 63.3°F (17.4°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Prolonged exposure and physical activity might induce exhaustion, potentially causing heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
