Weather in August
Temperature
New Britain's average high-temperature marks a still warm 82.8°F (28.2°C) with the advent of August, closely mirroring that of the preceding month. New Britain experiences a mean low-temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C) during August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
