Weather in August
Temperature
As Bowen, Arkansas, welcomes August, the average high-temperature is noted at a still tropical 92.5°F (33.6°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. The August nights bear witness to a significant drop from the daytime highs, settling at an average temperature of 70.7°F (21.5°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Take note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke can occur with prolonged effort.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for 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.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

Resist overexposure. Safeguarding from solar damage is indispensable. Limit direct sun exposure especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
