Temperature

August's weather displays an average high-temperature of a still hot 31.3°C (88.3°F), slightly varied from July's 30.6°C (87.1°F). The low-temperature average for Cigoong during August stands at a moderately hot 23.1°C (73.6°F).

Heat index

August's average heat index is computed to be a blistering 40°C (104°F). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in August leads to these recommendations:
Avoid overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can burn in under 20 minutes. 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. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
