Weather in August
Temperature
Hampstead's weather in August displays an average high-temperature of a still warm 81.5°F (27.5°C), showing minor disparity from July's 83.8°F (28.8°C). An average low-temperature of 63.7°F (17.6°C) is anticipated throughout the nights during August.Heat index
August's average heat index is estimated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Constant exposure and activity lead to possible fatigue. Prolonged exercise may result in heat cramps.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
