Weather in August
Temperature
Al Ghariyah's warmest season falls during July and August, averaging a high-temperature of 33.8°C (92.8°F).Heat index
August's mean heat index is computed to be a sweltering 36°C (96.8°F). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. The time between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is when UV radiation is at its peak. Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
