Weather in August
Temperature
August is the warmest month of the year, registering average temperatures as high as 31.3°C (88.3°F) and as low as 27.3°C (81.1°F).Heat index
August's average heat index is appraised at an extremely hot 41°C (105.8°F). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.

Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
