Weather in August
Temperature
The initiation of August records an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 84.4°F (29.1°C), displaying a near consistency with the previous month. Hollins reports a substantial plunge from daytime highs during the nights of August, with an average low-temperature of 61.2°F (16.2°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a hot 93.2°F (34°C). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
