Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Jesseton, Alabama, with an average temperature fluctuating between 88°F (31.1°C) and 69.1°F (20.6°C).

Temperature

The transition into August shows a subtle variation to a still hot 88°F (31.1°C) from July's 88.9°F (31.6°C) in the average high-temperature. Jesseton's nighttime temperature during August is consistently averaged at a pleasant 69.1°F (20.6°C).

Heat index

For August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.
From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index 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. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. 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 particularly important for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
