Weather in August
Temperature
August's arrival registers an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.2°F (30.1°C), closely aligning with the temperature of the previous month. Nighttime temperatures throughout August in Clifford register a significant deviation from the day's highs, averaging at a refreshing 63.7°F (17.6°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is evaluated at a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. 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', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
