The chance of rainfall is at the highest in August, marking it as the wettest month of the year. In contrast to the previous months, a noteworthy decline in sunshine hours occurs. However, in terms of precipitation, August stands out with the heaviest rainfall throughout the year, reaching an estimated 94mm (3.7"). From a weather perspective, August poses a blend of heat and frequent rains, making for a generally humid climate.

Temperature

August's onset records a minor alteration in the average high-temperature to a still torrid 35.8°C (96.4°F) from July's 37.9°C (100.2°F). An average low-temperature of 26.5°C (79.7°F) is noted in Gujar Khan during the month of August.

Heat index

August's heat index is computed to be a blistering 44°C (111.2°F). Be cautious: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a possible consequence of continuous physical effort.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to 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 natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
