Weather in August
Temperature
August stands out as Williamsfield's warmest month, with an average high-temperature of 29.7°C (85.5°F) and a low-temperature of 26.3°C (79.3°F).Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst, being a late symptom of dehydration, underlines the importance of maintaining hydration, especially during ongoing physical activities.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
