Fulton's August showcases an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.8°F (29.9°C), hardly distinct from July's 88°F (31.1°C). An average temperature of 66.9°F (19.4°C) is recorded in Fulton, Kansas, during the nights in August.

Heat index

The heat index in August is estimated at a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
