Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Ntonso, is another warm month, with an average temperature varying between 28.8°C (83.8°F) and 20.7°C (69.3°F).

Temperature

Ntonso's coldest months, July and August, record an average high-temperature of 28.8°C (83.8°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during August is calculated to be a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
