Weather in August
Temperature
Shelbyville in August witnesses an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 80.6°F (27°C), indicating a slight variation from July's 81.7°F (27.6°C). Throughout August, Shelbyville encounters an average temperature drop to a comfortable 63.1°F (17.3°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. 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', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
