Weather in August

The start of August marks an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32.3°C (90.1°F), hardly distinguishable from the conditions in July. Guangshan cools down to an average low-temperature of 23.3°C (73.9°F) throughout the month of August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a scorching 43°C (109.4°F). Heed: Expect heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continued action may cause heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
