August weather forecast
Seville, Spain

Consistently broiling under the summer sun, August in Seville holds firm to the weather patterns of July. The humble 5mm (0.2") of precipitation underlines the dryness of the city’s late summer. Saturation of daylight continues, brightening up the town and encouraging mid-day activities. Given the intensity of the sun, the city's cool indoors and evening walks by the Guadalquivir River offer solace. Albeit a notch down from July’s peak this month continues to demand respect for the UV index.

A minor adjustment in Seville's average high-temperature is noted with the start of August, touching a still torrid 35.5°C (95.9°F) from July's 36°C (96.8°F). Marked by a significant drop from the daytime highs, Seville's average low-temperature in August stands at an agreeable 20.4°C (68.7°F).

Heat index

August's heat index is calculated to be a blistering 41°C (105.8°F). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.
Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.
