Weather in August
Temperature
Shenandoah Square, Louisiana, measures an average high-temperature of a still tropical 91.9°F (33.3°C) in August, nearly consistent with the preceding month. In Shenandoah Square, August nights witness a steady temperature drop to a moderately hot 74.3°F (23.5°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 118.4°F (48°C). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. 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 particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
