August, the last month of the summer in Scenic Mountain, is another hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 89.1°F (31.7°C) and an average low of 70.2°F (21.2°C).

Temperature

Scenic Mountain registers an average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.1°F (31.7°C) at the commencement of August, closely related to the preceding month. During the month of August, the temperature in Scenic Mountain, Georgia, generally drops to a low average of 70.2°F (21.2°C).

Heat index

The heat index in August is evaluated at a scorching 104°F (40°C). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause 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 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. 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.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
