Weather in August
Temperature
Kimball experiences a subtle adjustment in high-temperatures to a moderately hot 85.8°F (29.9°C) with the onset of August, maintaining near parity with July's 88°F (31.1°C). Kimball measures a considerable dip from daytime highs with an average low-temperature of 63.7°F (17.6°C) during August.Heat index
The heat index value during August is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Exhaustion is likely with prolonged exposure and activity. Sustaining activity may result in heat cramps.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
