Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Jena, Florida, with an average temperature fluctuating between 76.8°F (24.9°C) and 89.8°F (32.1°C).

Temperature

Heat index

In August, the average heat index is appraised at a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Be prepared: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Continued activity may lead to heatstroke.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
