Weather in August
Temperature
As Sandersville welcomes August, the average high-temperature is noted at a still tropical 91.6°F (33.1°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. During August nights, Sandersville witnesses a consistent average temperature of 72°F (22.2°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August 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.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
