Weather in August
Temperature
Bonne Terre records a slight change with August's average high-temperatures adjusting to a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C) from July's 88.2°F (31.2°C). In Bonne Terre, August is marked by an average low-temperature of 65.7°F (18.7°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is appraised at a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
