The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Erratta, Alabama, with temperature in the range of an average high of 89.2°F (31.8°C) and an average low of 70°F (21.1°C).

Temperature

On the advent of August, Erratta's average high-temperature exhibits a minor adjustment to a still hot 89.2°F (31.8°C) from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). The average temperature drops to a pleasant 70°F (21.1°C) during the night in the month of August.

Heat index

The heat index in August is estimated at an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
