Weather in August
Temperature
August brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28.5°C (83.3°F), showing a slight difference from July's 28.4°C (83.1°F). Throughout August, a modest shift from daytime highs is anticipated, with an average low-temperature of 26.4°C (79.5°F).Heat index

Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
