Weather in August
Temperature
Sophie reaches its highest average temperatures in August, measuring 30.9°C (87.6°F) at the peak and 21.3°C (70.3°F) at the lowest.Heat index
August's average heat index is calculated to be a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the 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. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Sunshine
In Sophie, the average sunshine in August is 11.2h.UV index
January through May, July through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: The maximum daily UV index, 6 in August, converts into the following recommendations:
Continue precautions and advocate sun safety advice. Deterrence of sunburn is indispensable. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. It's wise to wear UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses when the sun shines brightly.
