Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 91°F (32.8°C), revealing a mild distinction from the 92.1°F (33.4°C) in July. Ironton observes an average low-temperature of 71.1°F (21.7°C) during August nights.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is computed to be a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Mindful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are to be expected. Extended physical effort might result in heatstroke.In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. 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 meaningful 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.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
