Weather in August
Temperature
As Slayden, Tennessee, transitions from July to August, the average high-temperatures adjust to a still tropical 87.8°F (31°C), nearly the same as the previous 88.9°F (31.6°C). Slayden witnesses an average low-temperature of 67.3°F (19.6°C) throughout the month of August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 102.2°F (39°C). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. 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 largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
