Weather in August
Temperature
Entering August, the average high-temperature is recorded at a still hot 86.2°F (30.1°C), exhibiting a minimal shift from July's 86.9°F (30.5°C). In Little River, in August, the average low-temperature is a moderately hot 74.8°F (23.8°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is evaluated at a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
