Weather in August

Temperature

Zhangshanzi marks the onset of August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.3°C (86.5°F), a subtle shift from July's 32.3°C (90.1°F). Throughout the month of August, the average temperature dips to a pleasant 22.4°C (72.3°F) at night.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Take more preventive steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is elevated. Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
