Weather in August
Temperature
With average temperatures fluctuating between a high of 28.4°C (83.1°F) and a low of 14.6°C (58.3°F), August stands out as the warmest month.Heat index
The heat index in August is estimated at a hot 31°C (87.8°F). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
