Temperature

A minimal variation is noted in Yoboki's average high-temperature at the onset of August, reaching a still very hot 36.9°C (98.4°F) from July's 37.9°C (100.2°F). Throughout August, an average low-temperature of 31.1°C (88°F) is experienced.

Heat index

In August, the average heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 44°C (111.2°F). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
