Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Commerce, Georgia, with an average temperature fluctuating between 68.2°F (20.1°C) and 88.9°F (31.6°C).

With the onset of August, a modest change to a still tropical 88.9°F (31.6°C) from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C) is noted in high-temperature. During the month of August, the temperature generally drops to a low average of 68.2°F (20.1°C).

Heat index

When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. 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. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
