Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Sayre, Alabama, with an average temperature varying between 90.1°F (32.3°C) and 70.3°F (21.3°C).

Heat index

Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
