August, the last month of the summer in Maury, is another hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 70.2°F (21.2°C) and 86.2°F (30.1°C).

Temperature

The start of August marks an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.2°F (30.1°C), hardly distinguishable from the conditions in July. Throughout August, Maury registers a consistent average low-temperature of 70.2°F (21.2°C).

Heat index

The heat index for August is calculated to be a fiery hot 100.4°F (38°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.
From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
