Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August registers at a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), closely corresponding to the preceding month. August generally records an average low-temperature of 73.8°F (23.2°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.

Sunshine
The average sunshine in August is 10.5h.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: The maximum daily UV index of 7 in August converts into the following recommendations:
Ward off overexposure. Defence against solar harm is crucial. The Sun's UV radiation is most intense from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. Employ a hat with a wide brim for robust protection, cutting UV exposure by half.
