Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Plainville, Kansas, with an average temperature varying between 67.5°F (19.7°C) and 90.1°F (32.3°C).

Temperature

As Plainville welcomes August, the average high-temperature stabilizes at a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), showing little deviation from July's 93°F (33.9°C). During the nights in August, Plainville records a pronounced shift from the daytime warmth, with a consistent average temperature of 67.5°F (19.7°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are extremely significant 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.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
