Weather in August
Temperature
Upon the beginning of August, Potistiria's high-temperatures register at a still moderately hot 28.3°C (82.9°F), closely mirroring the preceding month. An average low-temperature of 22°C (71.6°F) marks the nights throughout August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a hot 30°C (86°F). If activity and exposure persist, they could induce fatigue, leading to possible heat cramps.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for 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.
