Weather in August
Temperature
With an average high-temperature of 29°C (84.2°F) and an average low-temperature of 24.4°C (75.9°F), August is the warmest month.Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). With sustained exposure and activity, exhaustion becomes probable, resulting in heat cramps.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
Humidity
July and August, with an average relative humidity of 63%, are the least humid months.Rainfall
July and August are months with the least rain when the rain falls for 0.6 days and typically aggregates up to 1mm (0.04") of rain.Sea temperature
The month with the warmest seawater in Samos, Greece, is August, with an average sea temperature of 24.8°C (76.6°F).Note: Individual preferences to cold, influenced by conditions such as sunshine, wind, and surrounding temperature, play a part in the comfort of swimming in 24.8°C (76.6°F) waters. (As an aside, Olympic swimming standards dictate water temperatures from 25°C (77°F) to 28°C (82.4°F).)

July and August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 7 during August translates into the following directions:
Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Sun-protective clothing, a long-sleeved shirt and pants, a wide-brimmed hat, and UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses are particularly helpful in blocking UV radiation's harmful effects. Stay alert! Reflective properties of sand and water amplify the Sun's UV radiation.
