Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Mill Spring, Missouri, with an average temperature varying between 87.8°F (31°C) and 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Temperature

The onset of August marks an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.8°F (31°C), hardly differing from July's 89.4°F (31.9°C). A striking difference from the daytime highs is registered during August nights, with an average temperature of 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 102.2°F (39°C). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

Evade overexposure. Individuals with fair skin risk burning in under 20 minutes. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
