The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Pinckard, Alabama, with an average temperature ranging between min 73.6°F (23.1°C) and max 90.1°F (32.3°C).

Temperature

The average high-temperature in August, at a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), reveals a modest deviation from July's 90.9°F (32.7°C). In August, Pinckard reports a consistent average low-temperature of 73.6°F (23.1°C) during the nights.

Heat index

The heat index value during August is appraised at a scorching 109.4°F (43°C). Keep alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke is a potential danger with continued physical activity.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.

Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Limit your direct sun exposure, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest. Shade structures might not provide complete sun protection. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
