Heat index

In August, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

Humidity

In August, the average relative humidity is 49%.

It's wise to wear UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses when the sun shines brightly.
