Weather in August
Temperature
Water Valley sees the arrival of August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.3°F (32.4°C), indicating a subtle variation from July. Water Valley observes an average nighttime temperature of 70.9°F (21.6°C) during August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Beware: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are very likely. Heatstroke is imminent with prolonged activity.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
