Weather in August
Temperature
Pletcher, Alabama, in August witnesses an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), indicating a slight variation from July's 91°F (32.8°C). August brings with it a nighttime average temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Heed: Expect heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continued action may cause heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
