Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Satsuma, Alabama, with an average temperature varying between 91.6°F (33.1°C) and 75°F (23.9°C).

Temperature

Transitioning into August, Satsuma records an average high-temperature of a still hot 91.6°F (33.1°C), almost identical to July's 91.9°F (33.3°C). Throughout the month of August, Satsuma reports a steady low-temperature average of 75°F (23.9°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Precaution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are possible. Heatstroke is a serious risk with continued exertion.
The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest, limit direct exposure to the Sun and note that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat.
