Temperature

The introduction of August notes a subtle temperature variation to a still warm 29.7°C (85.5°F) from July's 28.4°C (83.1°F). During August, Mawgyan consistently records a temperature low averaging an agreeable 22.2°C (72°F).

Heat index

The heat index in August is evaluated at a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most intense from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. A wide-brimmed hat provides unparalleled sun protection for sensitive areas like the eyes, ears, and neck.
