Weather in August
Temperature
In August, Mit Shammas experiences a minor shift in meteorological conditions with average high-temperatures marked at a still fiery hot 36.6°C (97.9°F), closely mirroring the climate in July. Mit Shammas registers a substantial downturn from daytime peaks throughout August nights, with an average low-temperature of 23.3°C (73.9°F).Heat index
The heat index in August is appraised at a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Mind: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are anticipated. Heatstroke can develop with continued physical activity.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
