Weather in August
Temperature
As July turns into August, the average high-temperatures rest at a still moderately hot 29.3°C (84.7°F), showing a minor variation from the prior month. An average low-temperature of 23.3°C (73.9°F) is expected in Gasmata during August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
