Weather in August
Temperature
During August, the average high-temperature is a still moderately hot 28.6°C (83.5°F), maintaining a close resemblance to that of the preceding month. Recording a slight decline in temperature during the nights, Lamassa's August temperatures average at a still warm 25.3°C (77.5°F).Heat index
The heat index for August is calculated to be a hot 33°C (91.4°F). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
