Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Bestview, Tennessee, with an average temperature fluctuating between 64.4°F (18°C) and 86.7°F (30.4°C).

Temperature

The ushering in of August brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C), closely mirroring the 87.6°F (30.9°C) of July. In August, Bestview experiences a significant drop from daily zeniths to an average nighttime temperature of 64.4°F (18°C).

Heat index

The average heat index in August is computed to be a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
