Weather in August

With August's arrival, Whitesides Mill's weather records an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.8°F (31°C), marking little difference from July's 88.7°F (31.5°C). In Whitesides Mill, the average temperature during the nights of August drops to a pleasant 68.2°F (20.1°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is evaluated at a scorching 104°F (40°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.
