The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Reeves, Louisiana, with temperature in the range of an average high of 91.2°F (32.9°C) and an average low of 73.9°F (23.3°C).

Temperature

The warmest period is August, when temperatures fluctuate between an average high of 91.2°F (32.9°C) and a low of 73.9°F (23.3°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is computed to be a burning hot 116.6°F (47°C). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely 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.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

Note: The daily high UV index of 7 in August translates into this advice:
Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. Limit your exposure to the sun's UV radiation, which is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and note that parasols or canopies may not provide full sun protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
