Weather in August
Temperature
Dagamra's shift into August is marked by a subtle change to a still moderately hot 27.5°C (81.5°F) from July's 27.4°C (81.3°F) in temperature. Dagamra maintains a consistent average nighttime low-temperature of 23.8°C (74.8°F) throughout August.Heat index
The heat index value during August 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.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
