Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Andrews Chapel, Alabama, with an average temperature varying between 88.3°F (31.3°C) and 69.4°F (20.8°C).

Temperature

The transition into August is marked with an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.3°F (31.3°C), showing an insignificant shift from July's 89.1°F (31.7°C). Nighttime temperature experiences an average drop to an agreeable 69.4°F (20.8°C) in August.

Heat index

In August, the heat index is appraised at an extremely hot 104°F (40°C). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for 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.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
