Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Chickasaw, Alabama, with an average temperature varying between 90.9°F (32.7°C) and 76.5°F (24.7°C).

Temperature

The peak of Chickasaw's temperatures is noted during July and August, averaging a high-temperature of 90.9°F (32.7°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Notice: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued strenuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle 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 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
