Weather in August
Temperature
Sassar's August weather reaches an average high of 34°C (93.2°F) and an average low of 25.7°C (78.3°F), making it the coldest month.Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a blazing hot 46°C (114.8°F). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
