Weather in August
Temperature
The lowest temperatures are recorded in August, with averages reaching a high of 33.7°C (92.7°F) and a low of 25.3°C (77.5°F).Heat index
The heat index value for August is computed to be a blazing hot 47°C (116.6°F). Stay vigilant: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke may follow prolonged exertion.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. 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 'real feel', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
Humidity
The average relative humidity in August is 72%.Rainfall
The month with the most rainfall is August, when the rain falls for 21 days and typically aggregates up to 128mm (5.04") of precipitation.Daylight
In August, the average length of the day is 12h and 35min.On the first day of August, sunrise is at 06:48 and sunset at 19:33. On the last day of the month, sunrise is at 06:52 and sunset at 19:16 GMT.
Sunshine

January, February, July through September, November and December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: A maximum high UV index of 7 in August translates into the following recommendations:
Shield from overexposure. Defense against sun-related harm is required. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is particularly strong, noting that parasols or canopies may not offer total sun protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
