Weather in August
Temperature
August's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 93°F (33.9°C), demonstrating subtle variation from the preceding month. Nighttime temperature dips to a mean of 71.8°F (22.1°C) during August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at a blazing hot 114.8°F (46°C). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
Humidity
August and September, with an average relative humidity of 70%, are the least humid months.Rainfall
In August, the rain falls for 14.1 days. Throughout August, 2.52" (64mm) of precipitation is accumulated. In Battlefield, during the entire year, the rain falls for 142 days and collects up to 27.17" (690mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

Sunshine

The average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: An average UV index of 6 in August transforms into this advice:
Use protective steps and abide by sun safety guidelines. Safeguarding against skin and eye harm is necessary. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat.
