Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Lyons, Kansas, with an average temperature fluctuating between 89.2°F (31.8°C) and 68.5°F (20.3°C).

Temperature

Lyons in August witnesses an average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.2°F (31.8°C), indicating a slight variation from July's 92.1°F (33.4°C). An average temperature of 68.5°F (20.3°C) is recorded in Lyons, Kansas, during the nights in August.

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. 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.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
