Weather in August
Temperature
As Dickson, Georgia, welcomes August, the average high-temperature stabilizes at a still tropical 90°F (32.2°C), showing little deviation from July's 91.6°F (33.1°C). Dickson's August nights cool down to an average low-temperature of 69.8°F (21°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

Avoid overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can burn in under 20 minutes. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
