Weather in August
Temperature
In Madisonville, temperatures reach their average annual highs in August, measuring 91°F (32.8°C) and a minimum average of 76.8°F (24.9°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is appraised at a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Stay on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Ongoing effort can cause heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
