Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Goddard, Alabama, with an average temperature varying between 88.9°F (31.6°C) and 69.3°F (20.7°C).

Temperature

The arrival of August brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.9°F (31.6°C), closely following the temperature pattern of July. In Goddard, August's nights observe an average temperature dip to a pleasant 69.3°F (20.7°C).

Heat index

August's average heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 105.8°F (41°C). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.
Heat index specifics point out values are for conditions of shade and a slight breeze. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

Humidity

In Goddard, the average relative humidity in August is 75%.

Rainfall

In August, the rain falls for 19.2 days. Throughout August, 3.54" (90mm) of precipitation is accumulated. In Goddard, during the entire year, the rain falls for 174.6 days and collects up to 42.8" (1087mm) of precipitation.

UV index

The average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.
Note: The UV index of 6 during August leads to these advisories:
Undertake protective measures and comply with sun safety rules. Shielding against skin and eye damage is essential. Be aware that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and try to reduce direct sun exposure during this period as much as possible. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
