Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Pike City, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between min 70.7°F (21.5°C) and max 92.5°F (33.6°C).

Temperature

The advent of August denotes an average high-temperature of a still hot 92.5°F (33.6°C), subtly different from July's 92.8°F (33.8°C). Despite higher daytime temperatures, nighttime averages fall to a pleasant 70.7°F (21.5°C) in August.

Heat index

The heat index value during August is estimated at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. 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. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
