Weather in August
Temperature
A minor adjustment in Severn's average high-temperature is noted with the start of August, touching a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C) from July's 88°F (31.1°C). An average temperature of 68.9°F (20.5°C) marks the nights in Severn, North Carolina, in August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Use additional protective measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible outcomes. Continuous activity might lead to heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
