Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August signifies a minor shift to an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.3°F (29.6°C), aligning closely with July. Throughout August nights, Mossy Bottom reports a steady thermal contrast from the day, with an average low-temperature of 61°F (16.1°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is appraised at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
