Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in New Hebron, Mississippi, with an average temperature ranging between min 72°F (22.2°C) and max 91.4°F (33°C).

Temperature

August's average high-temperature stands at a still tropical 91.4°F (33°C), showing little deviation from July's 91.6°F (33.1°C). August sees the temperature falling to a mean low of 72°F (22.2°C).

Heat index

The heat index in August is computed to be a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. Sunglasses providing both UVA and UVB protection are non-negotiable on sunlit days.
