Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Garfield, Kansas, with an average temperature varying between 90.1°F (32.3°C) and 67.8°F (19.9°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is estimated at a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. 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.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
