August, the last month of the summer in Jasper, is also a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 70.2°F (21.2°C) and 89.8°F (32.1°C).

Transitioning into August, Jasper records an average high-temperature of a still hot 89.8°F (32.1°C), almost identical to July's 90.3°F (32.4°C). Throughout August, Jasper records an average temperature of 70.2°F (21.2°C) at night.

Heat index

August's mean heat index is appraised at an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.
Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. 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.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
