Weather in August
Temperature
Upon the beginning of August, Jericho's high-temperatures register at a still tropical 90.3°F (32.4°C), closely mirroring the preceding month. An average low-temperature of 69.8°F (21°C) is common in Jericho, Mississippi, during the nights of August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. 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', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
