Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a moderately hot month in Halfway, Kentucky, with an average temperature varying between 66.6°F (19.2°C) and 85.3°F (29.6°C).

Temperature

August's weather displays an average high-temperature of a warm 85.3°F (29.6°C), slightly varied from July's 86.5°F (30.3°C). Throughout August, Halfway registers a consistent average low-temperature of 66.6°F (19.2°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. 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 especially vital to children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
