Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August finds Gardendale at an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90°F (32.2°C), closely comparable to July's conditions. Gardendale's nighttime temperature during August is consistently averaged at a pleasant 70.5°F (21.4°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is calculated to be an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
