August weather forecast
Jamul, India

August, like July, is another hot rainy (monsoon) season month in Jamul, India, with temperature in the range of an average high of 30.8°C (87.4°F) and an average low of 24.8°C (76.6°F).

Temperature

The onset of August brings with it an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.8°C (87.4°F), showing a negligible variation from the month before. August witnesses an average nighttime temperature of 24.8°C (76.6°F).

Heat index

August's heat index is evaluated at a scorching 40°C (104°F). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Humidity

With an average relative humidity of 79%, August is the most humid month.

Rainfall

August is the month with the most rainfall. Rain falls for 25.3 days and accumulates 284mm (11.18") of precipitation.

Sunshine

The average sunshine in August is 7.9h.

UV index

In August, the average daily maximum UV index is 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.
Note: A maximum high UV index of 7 in August translates into the following recommendations:
Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. Employ a hat with a wide brim for robust protection, cutting UV exposure by half.
