Weather in August
Temperature
The beginning of August records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.9°C (87.6°F), almost echoing the conditions of the previous month. Kolkat witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 21.5°C (70.7°F) throughout August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). Continuous activity in exposure could lead to a feeling of fatigue and heat cramps.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. 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 hold great significance to children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
