Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August registers at a still tropical 87.8°F (31°C), closely corresponding to the preceding month. Nightly temperatures in Yellow Tavern, Virginia, drop to an average low of 67.6°F (19.8°C) in August.Heat index
The heat index value during August is computed to be a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Undertake extra safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke may result from lengthy activity.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
