Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Hickman, is another hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 65.8°F (18.8°C) and 86°F (30°C).

Temperature

With the start of August, Hickman measures an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86°F (30°C), not significantly differing from July's 86.9°F (30.5°C). Hickman's temperature drops to an average low of 65.8°F (18.8°C) during the nights of August.

Heat index

The heat index in August is estimated at a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.

Sun-protective clothing, a long-sleeved shirt and pants, a wide-brimmed hat, and UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses are particularly helpful in blocking UV radiation's harmful effects.
