Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Sayre, is another hot month, with an average temperature ranging between min 70.3°F (21.3°C) and max 90.1°F (32.3°C).

Temperature

Sayre, Alabama, marks the onset of August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), a subtle shift from July's 90.5°F (32.5°C). Nighttime temperatures hover around an average low of 70.3°F (21.3°C) in August.

Heat index

In August, the heat index is computed to be a blisteringly hot 107.6°F (42°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
