Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Hurley, Tennessee, with an average temperature ranging between min 68.9°F (20.5°C) and max 88.3°F (31.3°C).

Temperature

At the start of August, Hurley's average high-temperature reaches a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C), subtly different from the preceding month. An average nighttime temperature of 68.9°F (20.5°C) is recorded during August.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 104°F (40°C). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
