Weather in August
Temperature
August is the month when Cannes experiences its warmest temperatures, averaging a high of 27.2°C (81°F) and a low of 20.8°C (69.4°F).Heat index
The average heat index in August is evaluated at 29°C (84.2°F). Continuing activity during long-lasting exposure might induce tiredness and result in heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
