August weather forecast
Cangzhou, China

Despite being just as warm as July, August punctuates the summer with a lesser amount of rainfall - 140mm (5.51") - and a small decrease in daylight hours. The weather remains uniformly hot, yet the diminishing precipitation gives residents a reprieve from the successive rainstorms of July. The oscillation between heat and rainfall decreases, allowing for more prolonged sunny days. The robust combination of summer heat, sporadic downpours, and persistent daylight showcases the incredible diversity of August's weather.

Temperature

In August, Cangzhou experiences a minor shift in meteorological conditions with average high-temperatures marked at a still hot 30.3°C (86.5°F), closely mirroring the climate in July. August brings an average low-temperature of 21.6°C (70.9°F) to Cangzhou.

Heat index

August's average heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
