Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Triplet, Virginia, with an average temperature varying between 68°F (20°C) and 87.1°F (30.6°C).

Temperature

The advent of August brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.1°F (30.6°C), almost identical to the preceding month. During August, an average low-temperature of 68°F (20°C) is observed.

Heat index

In August, the average heat index is appraised at a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.
It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
