Weather in August
Temperature
August's beginning signals an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.3°F (32.4°C), barely different from July's 91°F (32.8°C). McCalla anticipates an average minimum temperature of 71.6°F (22°C) in the month of August.Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. Limit your direct sun exposure, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest. Shade structures might not provide complete sun protection. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
