Weather in August
Temperature
Korea experiences an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.5°F (29.7°C) in August, marking an insignificant shift from 86.9°F (30.5°C) in July. With the onset of night in August, Korea reveals a significant decrease in temperature, averaging at an enjoyable 62.8°F (17.1°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Adopt extra preventive measures, the occurrence of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is likely. Heatstroke may follow extended activity.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.Note: The daily high UV index of 6 during August translates into the following recommendations:
Undertake protective measures and comply with sun safety rules. Shielding against skin and eye damage is essential. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. Clothes that are both tight-knit and comfortably loose are prime choices for sun protection.
