August weather forecast
Mansa, India

August, like July, in Mansa, India, is a very hot rainy (monsoon) season month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 36.8°C (98.2°F) and 28.1°C (82.6°F).

Temperature

The arrival of August sees an average high-temperature of a still sweltering 36.8°C (98.2°F), hardly diverging from July's 39.3°C (102.7°F). August nights experience a consistent temperature drop to a moderately hot 28.1°C (82.6°F).

Heat index

August's mean heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 50°C (122°F). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Refrain from exposing skin and eyes. Without protection, they can get damaged rapidly. Avoid direct Sun exposure and stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is most intense, noting that not all shade structures offer full protection. Fend off the sun's harsh rays with appropriate clothing, a wide-brim hat, and UV-protective sunglasses.
