Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Jetts, Mississippi, with an average temperature varying between 91.6°F (33.1°C) and 72.1°F (22.3°C).

Temperature

August's beginning signals an average high-temperature of a still hot 91.6°F (33.1°C), barely different from July's 91.8°F (33.2°C). August brings an average low-temperature of 72.1°F (22.3°C) to Jetts.

Heat index

During August, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Remain alert: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Extended effort can lead to heatstroke.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
