August weather forecast
Abu Thaylah, Qatar

The strict high-temperature regime prevails throughout Abu Thaylah in August, persisting without significant alterations from previous months. Consequently, patterns for August remain loyal to the preceding firmly-established climatic trend, sustaining the stranglehold of burning heat and intense sunshine. The persistent heat wave maintains a steady course with average high temperatures reaching 41.3°C (106.3°F). Despite this, September brings a ray of hope with a slight dip in temperatures, indicating the gradual process of cooling down.

Temperature

August registers an average high-temperature of a still extremely hot 41.3°C (106.3°F), slightly varied from July's 41.8°C (107.2°F). Throughout the month of August, the average temperature dips to a hot 32.6°C (90.7°F) at night.

Heat index

In August, the heat index is appraised at a life-threatening hot 55°C (131°F). Warning: These weather conditions are regarded as very dangerous, as heatstroke is imminent.
Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

UV index

May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 9, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 8 to 10 symbolizes a very high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.
Note: A maximum UV index of 9 in August translates into the following recommendations:
Take special precautions, as unprotected skin can be damaged and can burn quickly. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., UV radiation is strongest. Make an effort to avoid direct sunlight during this time, remembering that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim. Despite the overcast weather, sunscreen with SPF of at least 30 should be applied liberally and reapplied often, particularly after swimming or an outdoor workout.
