Weather in August
Temperature
A minimal variation is noted in Hinton's average high-temperature at the onset of August, reaching a still hot 92.3°F (33.5°C) from July's 92.7°F (33.7°C). An average low-temperature of 72°F (22.2°C) is common during the nights of August.Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a blazing hot 116.6°F (47°C). Take heed: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Heatstroke is a potential outcome of continuous activity.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

Steer clear of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can be scorched in less than 20 minutes.
