August, the last month of the summer in Puckett, is also a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 71.6°F (22°C) and an average high of 91.6°F (33.1°C).

Temperature

Puckett's warmest months, July and August, record an average high-temperature of 91.6°F (33.1°C).

Heat index

August's heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Remain alert: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Extended effort can lead to heatstroke.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
