August, like July, in Devarkadra, India, is another warm rainy (monsoon) season month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 22.9°C (73.2°F) and an average high of 29.3°C (84.7°F).

Temperature

The beginning of August records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.3°C (84.7°F), almost echoing the conditions of the previous month. Nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 22.9°C (73.2°F) in August.

Heat index

In August, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Adopt extra safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Humidity

August and September, with an average relative humidity of 76%, are the most humid months.

UV index

The months with the lowest UV index in Devarkadra are January, July through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: The UV index of 6 in August translates into these instructions:
Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but keep in mind that not all shade structures provide complete protection. For effective sun eye protection, rely on sunglasses certified for UVA and UVB resistance.
