The advent of August sees the average high-temperature at a still moderately hot 81.3°F (27.4°C), subtly shifted from July's 82.6°F (28.1°C). Despite drastic daytime highs, Whitsett logs an average low-temperature reading of 59°F (15°C) throughout August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is appraised at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Continuous activity in exposure could lead to a feeling of fatigue and heat cramps.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
