Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a moderately hot month in Brushart, Kentucky, with an average temperature fluctuating between 84.9°F (29.4°C) and 62.2°F (16.8°C).

Temperature

August's onset sees an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 84.9°F (29.4°C), exhibiting a slight fluctuation from the previous month. Brushart observes a noteworthy temperature drop from the daily highs during August nights, with a mean temperature of 62.2°F (16.8°C).

Heat index

In August, the heat index is estimated at a torrid 95°F (35°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. 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 particularly meaningful for 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.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
