Weather in August
Temperature
August, with its average high-temperature of 29.8°C (85.6°F) and an average low-temperature of 24.8°C (76.6°F), holds the record as the coldest month.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 37°C (98.6°F). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.

Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. Sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays play a pivotal role in reducing solar eye damage.
