August weather forecast
Bhairab Bazar, Bangladesh

The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Bhairab Bazar, Bangladesh, with an average temperature fluctuating between 32.1°C (89.8°F) and 25.6°C (78.1°F).

Temperature

As July transitions into August, the average high-temperature rests at a still tropical 32.1°C (89.8°F), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. During August, the nighttime temperature averages to a warm 25.6°C (78.1°F).

Heat index

August's heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 46°C (114.8°F). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Humidity

In August, the average relative humidity is 83%.

Rainfall

In August, the rain falls for 27.5 days. Throughout August, 166mm (6.54") of precipitation is accumulated. In Bhairab Bazar, during the entire year, the rain falls for 188.4 days and collects up to 1184mm (46.61") of precipitation.

UV index

March through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.
Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 7 during August translates into the following directions:
Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., UV radiation is strongest. Make an effort to avoid direct sunlight during this time, remembering that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Arm yourself against UV rays' harm with protective apparel and UV-filtering shades.
