The last month of the summer, August, is another warm month in Nunn, Kentucky, with an average temperature fluctuating between 66.7°F (19.3°C) and 85.3°F (29.6°C).

Temperature

The transition into August shows a subtle variation to a warm 85.3°F (29.6°C) from July's 86.5°F (30.3°C) in the average high-temperature. Throughout August, Nunn encounters an average temperature drop to a comfortable 66.7°F (19.3°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.
Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. 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 of high significance for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
