August, the last month of the summer in Mud Lick, is another warm month, with an average temperature varying between 85.5°F (29.7°C) and 65.5°F (18.6°C).

Temperature

The onset of August notes an average high-temperature of a warm 85.5°F (29.7°C), subtly shifted from July's 86.5°F (30.3°C). Nighttime temperatures in August average to a comfortable 65.5°F (18.6°C).

Heat index

For August, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.
Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
