Weather in August
Temperature
Gauley Bridge's average high-temperature marks a still moderately hot 81.5°F (27.5°C) with the advent of August, closely mirroring that of the preceding month. Gauley Bridge's daily high temperature significantly diverges from the consistently recorded temperature low averaging a refreshing 58.5°F (14.7°C) in August.Heat index
August's heat index is computed to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
