Weather in August
Temperature
August's commencement is accompanied by an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28.1°C (82.6°F), diverging marginally from July's 27.8°C (82°F). August's average low-temperature is a still moderately hot 24.3°C (75.7°F), reflecting a minor difference from the day's peak temperatures.Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a hot 33°C (91.4°F). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.

Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is particularly strong, noting that parasols or canopies may not offer total sun protection.
