Weather in August
Temperature
As July transitions into August, the average high-temperature rests at a still warm 82°F (27.8°C), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. Throughout August, Ashland anticipates an average low-temperature of 64°F (17.8°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is appraised at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
