Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Youngtown, Alabama, with an average temperature varying between 69.1°F (20.6°C) and 88°F (31.1°C).

Temperature

August welcomes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88°F (31.1°C), not much different from the preceding month. Youngtown sees an average low-temperature of 69.1°F (20.6°C) during August.

Heat index

August's heat index is appraised at a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Note: The maximum UV index, 6 during August, leads to the following recommendations:

Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. Select sunglasses that boast both UVA and UVB protection to limit the adverse effects of the sun on the eyes.
