Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August denotes a barely perceptible change in the average high-temperatures to a still hot 87.4°F (30.8°C) from July's 88.5°F (31.4°C). Chocowinity registers a consistent average low-temperature of 70°F (21.1°C) during August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at a blistering 104°F (40°C). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

In Chocowinity, the average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: The maximum daily UV index, 6 in August, converts into the following recommendations:
Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. Opt for tightly woven and loose clothing to enhance protection from the Sun.
