Weather in August
Temperature
Yawar's shift into August sets the average high-temperature at a still warm 29.3°C (84.7°F), a figure that deviates only slightly from July's 29.1°C (84.4°F). Throughout the month of August, Yawar observes an average nighttime temperature of 23.4°C (74.1°F).Heat index
August's average heat index is computed to be a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

Enforce precautions and stick to sun safety measures. Preservation from skin and eye damage is essential. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun's UV radiation is at its peak. Limit your exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
