Weather in August
Temperature
Chilonwa sees the arrival of August with an average high-temperature of a still warm 28.7°C (83.7°F), indicating a subtle variation from July. In Chilonwa, following the steep rise of daytime temperatures, an average nighttime low of 15.1°C (59.2°F) is anticipated during August.Heat index
The heat index value for August is computed to be a tropical 30°C (86°F). When exposure and activity are sustained, they could induce fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
