Weather in August
Temperature
Welcoming August, Red Cloud notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C), nearly consistent with July's 89.6°F (32°C). August nights in Red Cloud report a substantial dip from daytime highs to an average of 65.1°F (18.4°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is appraised at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Use additional protective measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible outcomes. Continuous activity might lead to heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
