Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Guest, Alabama, with an average temperature varying between 86.5°F (30.3°C) and 66.9°F (19.4°C).

Temperature

With August's arrival, Guest's weather records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), marking little difference from July's 87.1°F (30.6°C). Throughout the month of August, Guest reports a steady low-temperature average of 66.9°F (19.4°C).

Heat index

In August, the heat index is appraised at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
