August weather forecast
Letpadan, Myanmar

August observes the heaviest rainfall, with an average precipitation measuring up to 350mm (13.78"). This period is marked by consistent showers accompanied by perpetual cloud cover. The decreased sun's exposure paired with the continual rainfall often leads to decreased visibility in Letpadan. Although temperatures remain relatively stable, the high humidity in the air persistently offers a warm feel. Against the backdrop of continuing monsoon showers, windspeeds see a slight decrease.

Temperature

Letpadan's coldest season falls during July and August, averaging a high-temperature of 29.8°C (85.6°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in August is evaluated at a blistering 40°C (104°F). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. 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. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.

Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. Arm yourself against UV rays' harm with protective apparel and UV-filtering shades.
