Weather in August
Temperature
August's advent denotes a minor fluctuation in the average high-temperature to a still moderately hot 27.8°C (82°F) from July's 27.5°C (81.5°F). Meri observes an average low-temperature of 16.4°C (61.5°F) during August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). Continued exposure and engagement in activity might trigger tiredness and subsequently heat cramps.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
