Weather in August
Temperature
During August, Springfield observes a subtle ascent to a still warm 81.9°F (27.7°C) from July's 82.8°F (28.2°C) in the average high-temperature. Springfield reports a consistent average low-temperature of 64°F (17.8°C) throughout August nights.Heat index
August's heat index is calculated to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
