Weather in August
Temperature
Nafhan marks the onset of August with an average high-temperature of a still sweltering 36.2°C (97.2°F), subtly divergent from July's 36.9°C (98.4°F). Nafhan maintains a consistent average nighttime low-temperature of 31.5°C (88.7°F) throughout August.Heat index
The heat index for August is computed to be a blazing hot 48°C (118.4°F). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of 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 gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

The months with the highest UV index are April through October, with an average maximum UV index of 8. A UV Index estimate of 8 to 10 represents a very high threat to health from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: The daily high UV index of 8 in August translates into this advice:
Swift harm can befall unprotected skin and eyes. Prioritize safety. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat.
