Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August observes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.7°F (27.6°C), nearly identical to July's 83.5°F (28.6°C). Mount Ayr sees an average low-temperature of 63.3°F (17.4°C) during August.Heat index
August's average heat index is calculated to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
