August weather forecast
Zemio, Central African Republic

In August, Zemio's weather reaches its wettest, with rainfall registering its peak at 126mm (4.96"). Complementing this high rainfall level, cloud cover also hits its maximum, further reducing the already declining daily sunshine duration. Despite the wet conditions, temperatures remain consistently warm, reinforcing the humid environment. Interestingly, the uv index sticks to the same 6 index score, whereas wind gust speed remains steady at 7km/h (4.3mph).

Temperature

Zemio, Central African Republic, measures an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.4°C (84.9°F) in August, nearly consistent with the preceding month. During August, Zemio observes a consistent average nighttime temperature of 19.2°C (66.6°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during August is computed to be a sweltering 37°C (98.6°F). Adopt extra preventive measures, the occurrence of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is likely. Heatstroke may follow extended activity.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

Humidity

In August, the average relative humidity is 85%.

UV index

May through October, with an average maximum UV index of 6, 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: The maximum daily UV index, 6 in August, converts into the following recommendations:
Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. Stay out of direct sunlight and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest, but remember that shade devices may not offer full sun protection. Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
