Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a moderately hot month in Maunie, Illinois, with temperature in the range of an average low of 65.8°F (18.8°C) and an average high of 84.4°F (29.1°C).

Temperature

The transition into August marks the average high-temperature at a still warm 84.4°F (29.1°C), differing minimally from July's 85.6°F (29.8°C). Throughout August, Maunie encounters an average temperature drop to an enjoyable 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Heat index

The average heat index in August is evaluated at a torrid 95°F (35°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
