Weather in August
Temperature
The initiation of August records an average high-temperature of a hot 93.4°F (34.1°C), displaying a near consistency with the previous month. Jefferson registers a consistent average low-temperature of 72.9°F (22.7°C) during August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is calculated to be an extremely hot 105.8°F (41°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
