Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Swan Bluff, is also a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 67.1°F (19.5°C) and 87.1°F (30.6°C).

Temperature

August is marked by an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.1°F (30.6°C), almost identical to the preceding month. Throughout August, the temperature tends to fall to a consistent average low of 67.1°F (19.5°C).

Heat index

August's mean heat index is estimated at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
