Weather in August
Temperature
The commencement of August notes an average high-temperature of a still very hot 37.4°C (99.3°F), exhibiting little difference from the previous month. Nightly readings in August display a noticeable downturn from daily highs in Al Halfayah, with the average low-temperature registering a warm 24.2°C (75.6°F).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 43°C (109.4°F). Beware: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are very likely. Heatstroke is imminent with prolonged activity.Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', 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. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
