Weather in August
Temperature
Longview's August weather, with an average high temperature of 95°F (35°C) and an average low temperature of 73.6°F (23.1°C), tends to be the warmest of the year.Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at a blazing hot 118.4°F (48°C). Alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely to occur. Prolonged exertion can lead to heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
