Weather in August

Marksville's August reports an average high-temperature of a still tropical 91.2°F (32.9°C), exhibiting a minor difference from July. An average nighttime temperature of 73°F (22.8°C) is observed during August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 116.6°F (47°C). Be alert: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a threat with sustained physical activity.Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
