Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August notes an average high-temperature of a still hot 86.5°F (30.3°C), revealing a mild distinction from the 87.6°F (30.9°C) in July. Obion's average low-temperature in the month of August is recorded at an agreeable 68.5°F (20.3°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
