Weather in August
Temperature
The dawn of August sees an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.9°F (32.7°C), subtly contrasting with July's 91°F (32.8°C). Atmore observes an average low-temperature of 72.9°F (22.7°C) during August nights.Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Forewarned: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Ongoing physical activity increases the likelihood of heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
