Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August brings an average high-temperature of a still sweltering 37.4°C (99.3°F), subtly diverging from July's 37.7°C (99.9°F). Despite considerable daily temperature swings, a steady low-temperature average of 24.2°C (75.6°F) is noted throughout August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 43°C (109.4°F). Beware: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are very likely. Heatstroke is imminent with prolonged activity.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. 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.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

A UV Index value of 8 to 10 symbolizes a very high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: In August, the maximum UV index of 8 suggests these recommendations:
Never be careless. Unprotected skin and eyes can be harmed swiftly. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
