Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Zulu, Alabama, with an average temperature fluctuating between 91°F (32.8°C) and 71.2°F (21.8°C).

Temperature

In August, the average high-temperature registers at a still hot 91°F (32.8°C), nearly identical to July's 91.8°F (33.2°C). Zulu records a mean low-temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C) in August.

Heat index

In August, the average heat index is evaluated at a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
