August weather forecast
Jining, China

August bids farewell to the peak of the hot summer days as temperatures gradually start to decrease in Jining. Respite from the summer heat is tangible throughout the city as the monsoon rain cools the surroundings. While temperatures remain high, the increased rainfall, which peaks at a yearly high of 128mm (5.04"), offers a welcome respite from the heat. Sun-shower days balance hot sunshine and the cooling effect of the rain, a distinctive characteristic of August. While the summer remains, August also heralds the forthcoming transitional period to autumn.

Temperature

August's presence records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.5°C (86.9°F), closely mirroring July's climate. An average nighttime temperature of 21.8°C (71.2°F) is noted during the month of August.

Heat index

August's average heat index is calculated to be a very hot 39°C (102.2°F). Adopt extra preventive measures, the occurrence of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is likely. Heatstroke may follow extended activity.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
