Weather in August
Temperature
Welcoming August, Glasgow notes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 84°F (28.9°C), nearly consistent with July's 85.8°F (29.9°C). In Glasgow, the average temperature during the nights of August marks a significant drop from the daily high, settling at a moderate 60.4°F (15.8°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is appraised at a hot 91.4°F (33°C). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
