August weather forecast
Phù Lưu Tế, Vietnam

The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Phù Lưu Tế, Vietnam, with an average temperature ranging between min 25.5°C (77.9°F) and max 33.1°C (91.6°F).

Temperature

Transitioning from July to August, Phù Lưu Tế observes an average high-temperature of a still hot 33.1°C (91.6°F), differing subtly from the previous month. August nights experience a consistent temperature drop to a moderately hot 25.5°C (77.9°F).

Heat index

In August, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 49°C (120.2°F). Note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke can follow with prolonged activity.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

Humidity

August and September, with an average relative humidity of 80%, are the most humid months.

Rainfall

The month with the most rainfall is August, when the rain falls for 21.5 days and typically aggregates up to 135mm (5.31") of precipitation.

Daylight

In August, the average length of the day is 12h and 50min.
On the first day of August, sunrise is at 05:31 and sunset at 18:35. On the last day of the month, sunrise is at 05:40 and sunset at 18:13 +07.

Sunshine

The average sunshine in August is 9.5h.

UV index

May through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: The maximum UV index of 7 during August translates into these guidelines:
Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure.
