Weather in August
Temperature
The transition from July to August brings an average high-temperature of a warm 85.6°F (29.8°C), barely different from July's 87.1°F (30.6°C). Missouri Branch, in August, experiences a marked contrast from daytime zeniths to a steady average low-temperature of 62.8°F (17.1°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
