Weather in August
Temperature
August tends to be the coldest month, with temperatures averaging a daily high of 29.8°C (85.6°F) and a low of 24.8°C (76.6°F).Heat index
In August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. 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. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
