The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Napoleonville, Louisiana, with an average temperature varying between 90°F (32.2°C) and 74.8°F (23.8°C).

Temperature

With the onset of August, the average high-temperature stands at a still tropical 90°F (32.2°C), closely aligned with July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). Napoleonville's nighttime temperature in August falls to an average of 74.8°F (23.8°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke can follow with prolonged activity.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
