The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Farrington Forest, Tennessee, with an average temperature ranging between max 87.4°F (30.8°C) and min 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Temperature

The commencement of August records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.4°F (30.8°C), barely varying from July's 87.6°F (30.9°C). Despite a significant deviation from daily highs, August sees an average nighttime temperature of 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Heat index

The heat index for August is computed to be a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.
Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
