August weather strikes a balance between the ambient
July heat and the upcoming mild
September, laying out a distinctive spectrum of weather variables. Despite being the second hottest month, temperatures top at a moderately scorching 29.4°C (84.9°F). Markedly, rainfall measures at 336mm (13.23") over 11.5 days, significant yet less intense compared to the wet July weather. Nonetheless, an ample share of daylight persists with 13.4 hours per day. A slight dip surfaces in the humidity, averaging 74.6%.
Temperature
August is the warmest month, with an average high-temperature of 29.4°C (84.9°F) and an average low-temperature of 22.4°C (72.3°F).
Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. 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.
