Weather in August
Temperature
Upon the onset of August, Wilcox witnesses an average high-temperature of a still hot 91°F (32.8°C), showing a close resemblance to the prior month. Throughout August, Wilcox registers a consistent average low-temperature of 72.3°F (22.4°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is computed to be a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Be wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are highly anticipated. With continued activity, heatstroke is very likely.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
