Weather in August
Temperature
August temperatures tend to peak at an average high of 29.8°C (85.6°F) and dip to a low of 21.6°C (70.9°F).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
