Weather in August
Temperature
During August, the average high-temperature is a still sweltering 37.1°C (98.8°F), maintaining a close resemblance to that of the preceding month. A noteworthy thermal contrast characterizes Al Khankah's August nights, with temperatures averaging at an agreeable 22.6°C (72.7°F).Heat index
August's mean heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 46°C (114.8°F). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
