Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August brings an average high-temperature of a still torrid 35°C (95°F), nearly identical to July's 36.9°C (98.4°F). Abalak experiences a consistent average temperature of 27.4°C (81.3°F) throughout the nights in August.Heat index
August's average heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Incorporate additional preventive steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
Humidity
August is the most humid month, with an average relative humidity of 48%.Rainfall
The month with the most rainfall is August, when the rain falls for 15.3 days and typically aggregates up to 78mm (3.07") of precipitation.Daylight

Sunshine
The month with the least sunshine is August, with an average of 9.2h of sunshine.UV index
The average daily maximum UV index in August is 8. A UV Index estimate of 8 to 10 represents a very high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: In August, a daily maximum UV index of 8 leads to the following instructions:
It is crucial to take precautions; skin and eyes can get damaged if left unprotected. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation.
