Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Pierre Part, is another tropical month, with an average temperature varying between 90°F (32.2°C) and 74.8°F (23.8°C).

Temperature

In August, Pierre Part notes an average high-temperature of a still hot 90°F (32.2°C), hardly different from the preceding month. In Pierre Part, the expected average low-temperature for August is a warm 74.8°F (23.8°C).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant 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.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
