At the start of August, Taulbee's average high-temperature reaches a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), subtly different from the preceding month. Against the backdrop of high daytime temperatures, an average low-temperature of 62.6°F (17°C) is noted during August nights.

Heat index

The heat index in August is computed to be a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. 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 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
