Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August marks an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28.5°C (83.3°F), hardly differing from July's 28.7°C (83.7°F). A mild drop to an average of 27.6°C (81.7°F) marks the nights during August.Heat index
The heat index for August is computed to be a hot 33°C (91.4°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular 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.
