Weather in August
Temperature
The initiation of August sees an average high-temperature of a still hot 91.6°F (33.1°C), showing minor variations from the previous month. During August, West Lake witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 74.3°F (23.5°C).Heat index
In August, the average heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 116.6°F (47°C). Take note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke can occur with prolonged effort.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

Shield from overexposure. Defense against sun-related harm is required. 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. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
