Weather in August
Temperature
With the start of August, Union Springs measures an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.7°F (32.6°C), not significantly differing from July's 91°F (32.8°C). Union Springs's nights in August experience an average temperature drop to an agreeable 72°F (22.2°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at an extremely hot 111.2°F (44°C). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
