Weather in August

The advent of August sees the average high-temperature at a still warm 82.8°F (28.2°C), subtly shifted from July's 83.8°F (28.8°C). During August nights, Dixie documents a marked contrast from daily highs, with an average temperature of 59.4°F (15.2°C).Heat index
The heat index in August is evaluated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Continuing activity during long-lasting exposure might induce tiredness and result in heat cramps.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
