Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Geneva, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between min 73.9°F (23.3°C) and max 90.3°F (32.4°C).

Temperature

Geneva indicates an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.3°F (32.4°C) in August, showing minor variation from July's 91°F (32.8°C). Geneva experiences a mean temperature of 73.9°F (23.3°C) during August nights.

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
