Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Holly Springs, Georgia, with an average temperature fluctuating between 87.8°F (31°C) and 68.2°F (20.1°C).

Temperature

August's beginning signals an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.8°F (31°C), barely different from July's 89.1°F (31.7°C). During August, the temperature is averaged to a low of 68.2°F (20.1°C) at night.

Heat index

In August, the heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 102.2°F (39°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

A wide-brimmed hat provides unparalleled sun protection for sensitive areas like the eyes, ears, and neck.
