August weather forecast
Patharia, India

August, like July, is another tropical rainy (monsoon) season month in Patharia, India, with an average temperature fluctuating between 24.3°C (75.7°F) and 30.8°C (87.4°F).

Temperature

On the advent of August, Patharia's average high-temperature exhibits a minor adjustment to a still hot 30.8°C (87.4°F) from July's 32.5°C (90.5°F). Patharia's temperature tends to fall to an average low of 24.3°C (75.7°F) during the nights of August.

Heat index

The heat index value for August is estimated at a blisteringly hot 41°C (105.8°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
