Weather in August
The last month of the summer, August, is another very hot month in Haskell, Texas, with temperature in the range of an average low of 76.6°F (24.8°C) and an average high of 97.2°F (36.2°C).Temperature
The month of August sees the highest average temperatures, reaching 97.2°F (36.2°C) at the peak and 76.6°F (24.8°C) at the low.Heat index
The heat index value during August is estimated at a blistering 105.8°F (41°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

Sunshine
In Haskell, the average sunshine in August is 10.4h.UV index
May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 7 during August translates into the following directions:
Resist overexposure. Safeguarding from solar damage is indispensable. To the best of your ability, limit your exposure to the sun between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. For effective sun eye protection, rely on sunglasses certified for UVA and UVB resistance.
