Rath's shift into August sets the average high-temperature at a tropical 34°C (93.2°F), a figure that deviates only slightly from July's 36.2°C (97.2°F). During August, the average low-temperature is a warm 27.6°C (81.7°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during August is computed to be a life-threatening hot 46°C (114.8°F). Remain cautious: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are foreseeable. Ongoing activity may precipitate heatstroke.
For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

UV index

Note: The daily high UV index of 8 in August translates into this advice:
Be constantly cautious; skin and eyes can be quickly affected if left unprotected. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
