Weather in August
Temperature
August denotes a minimal variation in the average high-temperature to a still moderately hot 28.8°C (83.8°F) from July's 29°C (84.2°F). Nights in August showcase an average temperature of 27.4°C (81.3°F), slightly cooler than the daytime.Heat index
During August, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 34°C (93.2°F). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
