Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C), closely related to the 88.3°F (31.3°C) observed in July. Homberg observes an average nighttime temperature of 67.3°F (19.6°C) during August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is estimated at a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Emphasize additional safety, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is high. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

The average relative humidity in August is 75%.Rainfall
In August, the rain falls for 14.6 days. Throughout August, 2.68" (68mm) of precipitation is accumulated. In Homberg, during the entire year, the rain falls for 160.7 days and collects up to 36.73" (933mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: The maximum UV index of 6 during August leads to these instructions:
Deter overexposure. Protecting against the sun's effects is essential. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. In the presence of strong sunlight, it's crucial to wear sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays.
