Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Alix, Arkansas, with an average temperature ranging between max 91.4°F (33°C) and min 68.5°F (20.3°C).

Temperature

As Alix welcomes August, the average high-temperature stabilizes at a still tropical 91.4°F (33°C), showing little deviation from July's 92.7°F (33.7°C). Despite the hot August days, Alix's nights see an average temperature plunge to an agreeable 68.5°F (20.3°C).

Heat index

August's average heat index is computed to be a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. 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 'felt air temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
