August, the last month of the summer in Yellow Bluff, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 72.1°F (22.3°C) and 92.7°F (33.7°C).

The transition from July to August sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still tropical 92.7°F (33.7°C), from a not significantly different 93.2°F (34°C). An average nighttime temperature of 72.1°F (22.3°C) is recorded during August.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is appraised at a burning hot 118.4°F (48°C). Eyes open: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Prolonged exertion could lead to heatstroke.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
