Weather in August

In August, the average heat index is estimated at a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
