Weather in August
Temperature
August is the coldest month, with an average high-temperature of 30.8°C (87.4°F) and an average low-temperature of 23.3°C (73.9°F).Heat index
In August, the average heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
Humidity
The most humid month is August, with an average relative humidity of 73%.Rainfall
August is the month with the most rainfall. Rain falls for 24.3 days and accumulates 154mm (6.06") of precipitation.Daylight

Sunshine
The average sunshine in August is 10.3h.UV index
January, July through September, November and December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: In August, the maximum UV index of 7 transforms into these recommendations:
Embrace precautions and observe sun safety norms. Evasion of sunburn is a necessity. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat.
