Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Halfway, Arkansas, with an average temperature ranging between max 93.2°F (34°C) and min 71.2°F (21.8°C).

The transition into August notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 93.2°F (34°C), revealing a mild distinction from the 93.7°F (34.3°C) in July. Halfway in August observes a substantial swing from the daily highs, with average nighttime temperatures of 71.2°F (21.8°C).

Heat index

August's mean heat index is appraised at a life-threatening hot 116.6°F (47°C). Take heed: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Heatstroke is a potential outcome of continuous activity.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
