Weather in August
Temperature
The yearly peak temperatures occur in July and August, averaging a high-temperature of 32.3°C (90.1°F).Heat index
During August, the heat index is calculated to be a scorching 42°C (107.6°F). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
