Weather in August
Temperature
August is the warmest month, with the temperature often reaching an average high of 34.7°C (94.5°F) and an average low of 17.8°C (64°F).Heat index
During August, the heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 39°C (102.2°F). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
Humidity
The least humid month is August, with an average relative humidity of 47%.Rainfall
July and August are months with the least rain when the rain falls for 1 days and typically aggregates up to 1mm (0.04") of rain.Daylight
The average length of the day in August is 13h and 35min.On the first day of the month, sunrise is at 06:35 and sunset at 20:40. On the last day of August, sunrise is at 07:01 and sunset at 20:02 WEST.
Sunshine
The months with the most sunshine are July and August, with an average of 11.6h of sunshine.UV index
July and August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: The UV index of 7 during August translates into the following guidance:
Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. The time between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is when UV radiation is at its peak. Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. Shield yourself from the harmful effects of UV radiation with sun-protective attire, a hat, and quality sunglasses.
