Weather in August
Temperature
Entering August, West Shiloh's average high-temperature reads a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C), indicating a close resemblance to the previous month's climate. In the month of August, West Shiloh's average low-temperature falls to a pleasant 68.9°F (20.5°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 104°F (40°C). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. 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 particularly important for children. 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 physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
