The last month of the summer, August, is also a moderately hot month in Micco, West Virginia, with an average temperature ranging between max 84.7°F (29.3°C) and min 60.6°F (15.9°C).

Temperature

August's advent presents an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C), indicating a slight variation from the conditions of the previous month. August nights bring a significant cooling from the heat of the day, with averages of 60.6°F (15.9°C).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
