August weather forecast
Itarsi, India

Temperature

Itarsi marks the arrival of August with an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 29.3°C (84.7°F), hardly different from July's 30.6°C (87.1°F). Itarsi experiences a steady low-temperature of 23.3°C (73.9°F) throughout August.

Heat index

The heat index value for August is estimated at a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.

Humidity

The most humid month is August, with an average relative humidity of 86%.

Rainfall

UV index

In August, the average daily maximum UV index is 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: The maximum UV index of 7 during August leads to these instructions:
Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. 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. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
