Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Frankfort, is also a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 69.1°F (20.6°C) and 88.3°F (31.3°C).

Temperature

The average high-temperature for August is a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C), closely aligning with the temperature of the preceding month. Frankfort witnesses an average low-temperature of 69.1°F (20.6°C) throughout the month of August.

Heat index

During August, the heat index is calculated to be a blistering 104°F (40°C). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
