The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Gardner, Louisiana, with temperature in the range of an average low of 73°F (22.8°C) and an average high of 92.8°F (33.8°C).

Temperature

A minimal variation is noted in Gardner's average high-temperature at the onset of August, reaching a still hot 92.8°F (33.8°C) from July's 93.2°F (34°C). The average temperature during August nights dips to a pleasant 73°F (22.8°C).

Heat index

August's heat index is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 120.2°F (49°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
