August weather forecast
Seeb, Oman

The sweltering summer continues in Seeb, Oman in August. Temperatures remain relatively high, similar to those of July. Receiving a mere 1mm (0.04") of rainfall denotes a continuation of the dry period. The increasing humidity reaching 67%, however, makes the climate more challenging for visitors. As the daylight hours decrease to 12.9, August remains a prime example of the relentless Middle Eastern summer weather.

Temperature

Stepping into August, Seeb records an average high-temperature of a still fiery hot 36.2°C (97.2°F), almost consistent with July. Throughout August, the nighttime temperature in Seeb, Oman, averages to a moderately hot 28.4°C (83.1°F).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 53°C (127.4°F). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
