August weather forecast
Kanha, India

August, like July, in Kanha, India, is another warm rainy (monsoon) season month, with an average temperature varying between 29.3°C (84.7°F) and 22.6°C (72.7°F).

Temperature

With the onset of August, the average high-temperature stands at a warm 29.3°C (84.7°F), closely aligned with July's 30.3°C (86.5°F). Kanha reports an average nighttime low-temperature of 22.6°C (72.7°F) in August.

Heat index

During August, the heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 37°C (98.6°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Humidity

With an average relative humidity of 87%, August is the most humid month.

Note: The UV index of 7 during August leads to these advisories:
Eschew overexposure. Those with light skin may suffer burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Counter UV radiation's ill effects with clothing designed for sun safety and UV-resistant eyewear.
