Weather in August
Temperature
Zebulon's average high-temperature in August is a still hot 86.5°F (30.3°C), marking an insignificant difference from the 88.9°F (31.6°C) of July. In August, the average low-temperature in Zebulon, North Carolina, records at an agreeable 69.3°F (20.7°C) during the nights.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
