August, the last month of the summer in Terrell, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 88°F (31.1°C) and min 66.6°F (19.2°C).

Temperature

August's commencement is accompanied by an average high-temperature of a still hot 88°F (31.1°C), diverging marginally from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). During August, Terrell experiences a consistent low-temperature average of 66.6°F (19.2°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.
Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
