Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Grover, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 66.7°F (19.3°C) and 87.4°F (30.8°C).

Temperature

The shift from July to August is characterized by an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.4°F (30.8°C), not significantly different from the 88.3°F (31.3°C) of July. August nights in Grover are marked by an average temperature drop to a comfortable 66.7°F (19.3°C).

Heat index

The heat index in August is computed to be a fiery hot 102.2°F (39°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
