Weather in August
Temperature
Ethridge observes a minor difference in average high-temperatures between July's 88°F (31.1°C) and August's 86.9°F (30.5°C). Ethridge, during the month of August, experiences an average low-temperature of 68°F (20°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is evaluated at a torrid 100.4°F (38°C). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. 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. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: During August, 6 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. Sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays play a pivotal role in reducing solar eye damage.
