Weather in August
Temperature
Elia witnesses the coldest weather in August, with temperatures averaging a high of 30.3°C (86.5°F) and a low of 24.6°C (76.3°F).Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 39°C (102.2°F). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

Act on precautions and pay attention to sun safety recommendations. Avoidance of sunburn is obligatory. 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. Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
