Weather in August
Temperature
Pegram, Tennessee, experiences an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C) in August, subtly different from July's 87.8°F (31°C). Pegram reports an average low-temperature of 67.5°F (19.7°C) during the nights of August.Heat index
The heat index value for August is calculated to be a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Steer clear of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can be scorched in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat.
