Weather in August
Temperature
August tends to be the warmest month, with temperatures averaging a daily high of 31.3°C (88.3°F) and a low of 15.3°C (59.5°F).Heat index
During August, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Undertake special precautions, the probability of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Prolonged activity may provoke heatstroke.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
