August weather forecast
Doiwala, India

August, like July, in Doiwala, India, is a moderately hot rainy (monsoon) season month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 28.9°C (84°F) and 21.1°C (70°F).

Temperature

August's advent denotes a minor fluctuation in the average high-temperature to a warm 28.9°C (84°F) from July's 30.8°C (87.4°F). Throughout the month of August, Doiwala sees a steady low-temperature average of 21.1°C (70°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in August is computed to be a torrid 35°C (95°F). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.
Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. 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.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Humidity

August is the most humid month in Doiwala, with an average relative humidity of 82%.

Rainfall

August is the month with the most rainfall. Rain falls for 27.9 days and accumulates 245mm (9.65") of precipitation.

UV index

The average daily maximum UV index in August in Doiwala is 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.
Note: In August, the maximum UV index of 6 translates into these guidelines:
Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the period of highest UV radiation. Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. In the presence of strong sunlight, it's crucial to wear sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays.
