Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August brings with it an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.3°F (31.3°C), showing a negligible variation from the month before. McColl registers a consistent average low-temperature of 70.9°F (21.6°C) during August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be an extremely hot 104°F (40°C). Emphasize additional safety, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is high. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.
