Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Champion, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 87.6°F (30.9°C) and 68.7°F (20.4°C).

Temperature

Champion experiences an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.6°F (30.9°C) in August, subtly different from July's 88.5°F (31.4°C). An average low-temperature of 68.7°F (20.4°C) is expected during August.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.
It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. Select sunglasses that boast both UVA and UVB protection to limit the adverse effects of the sun on the eyes.
