Weather in August

The sweltering heat starts to mildly taper during August in Conway, though humidity remains relatively high. The daily sunshine, coupled with high temperatures, results in many warm and dry days, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. There's a slight decrease in rainfall, however, enough to warrant the occasional umbrella. Most notably, a slight dip in the highest average temperature occurs, moving down to 90.9°F (32.7°C) from July's peak of 91.9°F (33.3°C). We can sense a subtle cool in the mornings and nights, giving hints of the incoming fall.

Temperature

August's beginning signals an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.9°F (32.7°C), barely different from July's 91.9°F (33.3°C). The temperature dips to an average of 70°F (21.1°C) during August nights.

Heat index

The average heat index in August is estimated at an extremely hot 111.2°F (44°C). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.
