The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Homer, Louisiana, with temperature in the range of an average high of 93.7°F (34.3°C) and an average low of 72.3°F (22.4°C).

August's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 93.7°F (34.3°C), demonstrating subtle variation from the preceding month. Homer's temperature in August lowers to a consistent average of 72.3°F (22.4°C) during the nights.

Heat index

August's average heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 118.4°F (48°C). Warning: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Heatstroke is a risk with ongoing activity.
When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant 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.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
