Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, Namwendwa's average high-temperature clocks in at a still moderately hot 27.8°C (82°F), showing a minor fluctuation from the previous month. Namwendwa throughout August, records an average low-temperature of 16.4°C (61.5°F).Heat index
August's mean heat index is estimated at a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). If one persists in activity during exposure, it could induce weariness and subsequently, heat cramps.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
