Weather in August
Temperature
The introduction of August sees an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28.3°C (82.9°F), hardly deviating from July. Throughout August, the average low-temperature in Basibasy dips to an agreeable 20.2°C (68.4°F).Heat index
The heat index value during August is estimated at a tropical 30°C (86°F). Unrelenting activity during exposure could cause fatigue and potentially lead to heat cramps.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to 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.
