Temperature

During the warmest month, August, temperatures average a high of 33.4°C (92.1°F) and a low of 23.4°C (74.1°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in August is computed to be a burning hot 49°C (120.2°F). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.
Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. 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. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Humidity

In August, the average relative humidity is 79%.

Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 7 during August translates into the following directions:
Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
