August weather forecast
Ruku, Iran

August, the last month of the summer in Ruku, is another tropical month, with an average temperature varying between 28.5°C (83.3°F) and 32.3°C (90.1°F).

Temperature

With the transition into August, Ruku notes an average high-temperature of a still hot 32.3°C (90.1°F), closely resembling July. Nighttime temperatures hover around an average low of 28.5°C (83.3°F) in August, a slight descent from daytime highs.

Heat index

August's mean heat index is computed to be a scorching 42°C (107.6°F). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Humidity

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

UV index

April through September, with an average maximum UV index of 8, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 8 to 10 symbolizes a very high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 8 during August translates into the following directions:
Prioritize your safety. Without precautions, skin and eyes might get hurt quickly. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
