Temperature

The month of August sees the highest average temperatures in Feshi, reaching 36°C (96.8°F) at the peak and 24.2°C (75.6°F) at the low.

Heat index

In August, the heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 41°C (105.8°F). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful 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. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
