Weather in August

August upholds a steady flow of Ozark's summer, with very similar conditions to July. Despite a minor dip in temperatures, August has the city sweltering under the summer heat. The daylight duration begins its gradual decline, bridging the gap between the height of summer and the onset of autumn. However, the rainfall sees a slight increase, hinting at the impending seasonal change. August's climate holds a taste of both seasons, with daytime reflecting the summer swelter while evenings start getting cooler.

Temperature

August commences with an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.1°F (30.6°C), showing little deviation from July's 88.7°F (31.5°C). Throughout August, the nighttime temperature averages to a comfortable 66.4°F (19.1°C).

Heat index

The average heat index in August is estimated at a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
