Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Nahunta, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between min 74.1°F (23.4°C) and max 90.1°F (32.3°C).

Temperature

August's weather displays an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), slightly varied from July's 91°F (32.8°C). During August, Nahunta's temperature averages to a moderately hot 74.1°F (23.4°C) at night.

Heat index

In August, the average heat index is appraised at a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Notice: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued strenuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to 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.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

Uphold preventive measures and conform to sun safety guidelines. Defending against skin and eye harm is crucial. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection.
