Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Brandenburg, Kentucky, with an average temperature fluctuating between 65.7°F (18.7°C) and 86°F (30°C).

Temperature

Brandenburg transitions into August recording an average high-temperature of a still hot 86°F (30°C), closely aligning with the preceding month's temperature. Brandenburg, in August, observes a steady average low-temperature of 65.7°F (18.7°C).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with 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 'real feel' or 'feels like', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
