Weather in August
Temperature
August's advent denotes a minor fluctuation in the average high-temperature to a still tropical 91°F (32.8°C) from July's 91.2°F (32.9°C). Nighttime temperatures in Simmesport hover around an average low of 73°F (22.8°C) in August.Heat index
The heat index for August is calculated to be a burning hot 116.6°F (47°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. 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 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
