Weather in August
Temperature
The coldest period is August, when temperatures fluctuate between an average high of 31°C (87.8°F) and a low of 23.1°C (73.6°F).Heat index
The heat index in August is evaluated at a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
