Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Bassville, is another hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 89.8°F (32.1°C) and min 73.6°F (23.1°C).

With the onset of August, the average high-temperature registers at a still hot 89.8°F (32.1°C), subtly different from July's 90.3°F (32.4°C). Bassville witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 73.6°F (23.1°C) throughout August.

Heat index

The average heat index in August is estimated at an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.
The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. 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.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
