Weather in August
Temperature
August's beginning signals an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28.7°C (83.7°F), barely different from July's 27.3°C (81.1°F). Chilonwa's average nighttime temperature descends significantly from the day's peak in August, settling at a refreshing 15.1°C (59.2°F).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 30°C (86°F). With constant exposure and activity, a state of weariness might ensue, leading to potential heat cramps.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. 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 are especially vital to children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
