Weather in August
Temperature
August reports an average high-temperature of a still tropical 91.4°F (33°C), slightly varied from July's 91.6°F (33.1°C). In August, Hazlehurst encounters an average low-temperature of 72.1°F (22.3°C) during the night.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
