Weather in August
Temperature
Ringgold's warmest months, July and August, record an average high-temperature of 94.6°F (34.8°C).Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 120.2°F (49°C). Remain alert: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Extended effort can lead to heatstroke.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary.

Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
