Weather in August
Temperature
As Thomaston steps into August, the average high-temperature holds at a still tropical 92.3°F (33.5°C), hinting at a minor fluctuation from the prior month. In Thomaston, the average low-temperature during the month of August is a pleasant 72.1°F (22.3°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 116.6°F (47°C). Stay vigilant: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke may follow prolonged exertion.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. 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 highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
