Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Cork, Georgia, with an average temperature fluctuating between 89.2°F (31.8°C) and 70.2°F (21.2°C).

Temperature

The transition into August shows a subtle variation to a still tropical 89.2°F (31.8°C) from July's 90.9°F (32.7°C) in the average high-temperature. In the month of August, an average of 70.2°F (21.2°C) marks the low-temperature.

Heat index

Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values 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 perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
