The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Three Way, Tennessee, with an average temperature varying between 68.9°F (20.5°C) and 87.3°F (30.7°C).

Temperature

August's advent denotes a minor fluctuation in the average high-temperature to a still tropical 87.3°F (30.7°C) from July's 87.8°F (31°C). The low-temperature averages to an agreeable 68.9°F (20.5°C) during the nights of August.

Heat index

For August, the heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 102.2°F (39°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
