Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Clarks, Louisiana, with an average temperature ranging between min 73°F (22.8°C) and max 93.2°F (34°C).

Temperature

August brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 93.2°F (34°C), nearly identical to the preceding month. The nights of August anticipate an average low-temperature of 73°F (22.8°C).

Heat index

The heat index value during August is computed to be a blazing hot 120.2°F (49°C). Notice: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued strenuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely significant for 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.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
