August weather forecast
Maan, Jordan

August maintains its summer uniform in Maan, showcasing similar thermometer readings compared to July, including the monthly highest of 34.1°C (93.4°F). Slight increment in humidity may introduce stickiness into the atmosphere, with heat retention becoming potent during the day. However, rainfall remains a non-attendee, maintaining the standard dry August narrative. Despite the dominance of heat, evenings and nights can still be pleasantly lukewarm. As the summer winds down, Maan's outdoors undergo a transformation with the onset of the harvest season.

Temperature

August brings the highest temperatures, with an average high of 34.1°C (93.4°F) and an average low of 17.2°C (63°F).

Heat index

The heat index for August is estimated at a sweltering 36°C (96.8°F). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for 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.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.

Note: An average UV index of 12 in August transforms into this advice:
Employ every crucial safety step. Those with fair skin could experience burns in a matter of minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly. Regardless of the cloudiness of the day, a sunscreen with SPF 30 or more should be applied and reapplied generously, specifically after swimming or outdoor exercise.
