Weather in August
Temperature
The commencement of August introduces an average high-temperature of a tropical 34.5°C (94.1°F), closely mirroring the preceding month. Al Hasamah's nighttime temperature in August shows a minor descent, with a steady average of 31.3°C (88.3°F).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 47°C (116.6°F). Take note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke can occur with prolonged effort.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
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. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
Humidity
The average relative humidity in August is 67%.Rainfall
In Al Hasamah, during August, the rain falls for 5.5 days and regularly aggregates up to 15mm (0.59") of precipitation. In Al Hasamah, during the entire year, the rain falls for 63.2 days and collects up to 160mm (6.3") of precipitation.Daylight

Sunshine
May, June and August, with an average of 12.2h of sunshine, are months with the most sunshine.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are April through October, with an average maximum UV index of 8. A UV Index of 8 to 10 symbolizes a very high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: In August, the UV index of 8 transforms into the following advice:
Be proactive in protecting yourself; skin and eyes can be harmed if left unprotected. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
