On the advent of August, Nimgong's average high-temperature exhibits a minor adjustment to a still tropical 33.2°C (91.8°F) from July's 32.8°C (91°F). Nimgong throughout August, records an average low-temperature of 25.8°C (78.4°F).

Heat index

August's heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 50°C (122°F). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
