August, the last month of the summer in Barney, is also a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 90.3°F (32.4°C) and an average low of 73°F (22.8°C).

The introduction of August notes a subtle temperature variation to a still hot 90.3°F (32.4°C) from July's 90.9°F (32.7°C). Nighttime temperatures in Barney consistently average a pleasant 73°F (22.8°C) during August.

Heat index

The average heat index in August is computed to be a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Eyes open: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Prolonged exertion could lead to heatstroke.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for 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.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
