Heat index

During August, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 30°C (86°F). Ongoing exposure and activity could lead to a state of exhaustion, with a chance of heat cramps.
Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.

Humidity

With an average relative humidity of 71%, August is the least humid month.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for ordinary individuals.
Note: In August, the maximum UV index of 7 translates into these guidelines:
Evade overexposure. Individuals with fair skin risk burning in under 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. In the presence of strong sunlight, it's crucial to wear sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays.
