Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Littleville, Kentucky, with an average temperature ranging between max 87.3°F (30.7°C) and min 67.6°F (19.8°C).

Temperature

The onset of August brings with it an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.3°F (30.7°C), showing a negligible variation from the month before. An average low-temperature of 67.6°F (19.8°C) marks the month of August.

Heat index

August's average heat index is calculated to be a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Sun-protective clothing, a long-sleeved shirt and pants, a wide-brimmed hat, and UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses are particularly helpful in blocking UV radiation's harmful effects.
