Weather in August
Temperature
The introduction of August sees an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.3°F (30.7°C), hardly deviating from July. Throughout August, an average low-temperature of 66°F (18.9°C) is experienced in Lookout Mountain.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
