Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Mount Verd, Tennessee, with an average temperature varying between 86.9°F (30.5°C) and 64.9°F (18.3°C).

Temperature

With the onset of August, the average high-temperature registers at a still tropical 86.9°F (30.5°C), subtly different from July's 87.6°F (30.9°C). In August, a remarkable difference from daytime highs is noted, as Mount Verd records an average temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C) during the night.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.
For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
