Weather in August
Temperature
August's average high-temperature stands at a still hot 94.3°F (34.6°C), showing little deviation from July's 94.6°F (34.8°C). During the month of August, Natchez anticipates a mean low-temperature of 73°F (22.8°C).Heat index
In August, the average heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 120.2°F (49°C). Beware: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are very likely. Heatstroke is imminent with prolonged activity.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
