Weather in August
Temperature
The introduction of August notes a subtle temperature variation to a still hot 91°F (32.8°C) from July's 91.4°F (33°C). Flomaton temperatures generally rest at a low of 73.6°F (23.1°C) during the August nights.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Take note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke can occur with prolonged effort.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

The months with the highest UV index are June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: A daily high UV index of 7 in August leads to these guidelines:
Fend off overexposure. Sun protection is vital. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation. Limit direct exposure to the Sun during these hours. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
