Weather in August
Temperature
The warmest period in Bologna tends to be August, when average temperatures fluctuate between a high of 31.3°C (88.3°F) and a low of 18.6°C (65.5°F).Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a very hot 35°C (95°F). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
