August, the last month of the summer in Crockett, is another hot month, with an average temperature varying between 89.4°F (31.9°C) and 70.7°F (21.5°C).

Temperature

Crockett transitions into August recording an average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.4°F (31.9°C), closely aligning with the preceding month's temperature. During August, Crockett observes a consistent average nighttime temperature of 70.7°F (21.5°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is calculated to be an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level 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 children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
