Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), exhibiting minor difference from the previous month. Dandridge documents a significant temperature variance in August, with the mean nighttime lows settling at a refreshing 62.8°F (17.1°C).Heat index
August's heat index is estimated at a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.Heat index specifics point out values are for conditions of shade and a slight breeze. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
