Weather in August
Temperature
Kenton notes an average high-temperature of a still warm 82.4°F (28°C) in August, hardly diverging from July. The temperature dips to an average of 67.6°F (19.8°C) during August nights.Heat index
The heat index value during August is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). If exposure and activity persist, fatigue could ensue, possibly leading to heat cramps.Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
