Weather in August
Temperature
Summersville's weather in August, with an average high-temperature of a warm 85.1°F (29.5°C), subtly shifts from July's 86.2°F (30.1°C). Throughout the month of August, Summersville expects an average low of 65.1°F (18.4°C).Heat index
August's heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 95°F (35°C). Ensure heightened precautions, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is significant. Sustained activity could provoke heatstroke.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
