Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August presents an average high-temperature of a still warm 84.6°F (29.2°C), maintaining a close correlation with the preceding month. Corydon cools down to an average low-temperature of 66.2°F (19°C) throughout the month of August.Heat index
The heat index value during August is computed to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. 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 quite important for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. Avoid direct exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, noting that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer complete sun protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a staple for defending the face, eyes, ears, and neck from the Sun.
