Weather in August
Temperature
The beginning of August records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), marking a negligible difference from July's 87.4°F (30.8°C). Theta, in August, observes a steady average low-temperature of 67.6°F (19.8°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. 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 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for 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.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
Humidity
In August, the average relative humidity is 76%.Rainfall
In Theta, in August, it is raining for 14.4 days, with typically 1.85" (47mm) of accumulated precipitation. In Theta, Tennessee, during the entire year, the rain falls for 141.9 days and collects up to 17.32" (440mm) of precipitation.Snowfall
April through October are months without snowfall.Daylight
In August, the average length of the day is 13h and 28min.On the first day of August, sunrise is at 5:56 am and sunset at 7:52 pm. On the last day of the month, sunrise is at 6:20 am and sunset at 7:16 pm CDT.
Sunshine
The average sunshine in August is 10.3h.UV index
May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: In August, a daily maximum UV index of 6 leads to the following instructions:
Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. The hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. have the most intense UV radiation. As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
