Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Austinville, is another hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 88.3°F (31.3°C) and min 68.9°F (20.5°C).

Temperature

August's beginning signals an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.3°F (31.3°C), barely different from July's 88.7°F (31.5°C). August nights cool down to an average low-temperature of 68.9°F (20.5°C).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a blistering 104°F (40°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.
Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
