Weather in August
Temperature
August, with an average high of 29.1°C (84.4°F) and a low of 21.7°C (71.1°F), signifies the coldest month of the year.Heat index
The average heat index in August is evaluated at a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.
