The last month of the summer, August, is also a moderately hot month in Hima, Kentucky, with temperature in the range of an average low of 61.7°F (16.5°C) and an average high of 85.1°F (29.5°C).

Temperature

August is marked by an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.1°F (29.5°C), almost identical to the preceding month. Throughout August, Hima notes a dramatic plunge from the daily high to an average low-temperature of 61.7°F (16.5°C).

Heat index

August's average heat index is appraised at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
