Weather in August
Temperature
August, having an average high-temperature of 33.5°C (92.3°F) and an average low-temperature of 24.7°C (76.5°F), is the coldest month.Heat index
August's heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 43°C (109.4°F). Keep on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a possible danger with ongoing physical activity.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
