Weather in August
Temperature
The transition from July to August sees an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.6°C (81.7°F), indicating a minor variance from the prior month. Mwandimu in August anticipates an average nighttime temperature of 22°C (71.6°F).Heat index
August's average heat index is estimated at a hot 31°C (87.8°F). Remaining active during long-lasting exposure could cause fatigue, leading to heat cramps.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. 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. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.

The months with the lowest UV index are July and August, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: The maximum UV index, 6 during August, leads to the following recommendations:
Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
