August weather forecast
Tangail, Bangladesh

As August unfolds, weather conditions in Tangail take a turn with a decline in rainfall that measures up to 107mm (4.21"), easing from July's peak. Fewer rainfall days indicate the gradual exit of the monsoon season. However, the weather remains notably warm, with temperatures reflecting those of the previous month. The humidity levels continue to linger at the higher end of the scale. A unique weather pattern emerges as both wind speeds and cloud cover decrease, even though temperatures remain high.

Temperature

As July transitions into August, the average high-temperature in Tangail rests at a still tropical 32.7°C (90.9°F), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. Tangail encounters an average low-temperature of 26.6°C (79.9°F) during August nights.

Heat index

The average heat index in August is evaluated at a burning hot 47°C (116.6°F). Take heed: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Heatstroke is a potential outcome of continuous activity.
In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. 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 'apparent temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.

Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Employ a hat with a wide brim for robust protection, cutting UV exposure by half.
