Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August records an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.7°F (32.6°C), closely related to the 91°F (32.8°C) observed in July. Brittany records a steady low-temperature average of 74.8°F (23.8°C) during August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Notice: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued strenuous activity might lead to heatstroke.Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Sunshine
In Brittany, the average sunshine in August is 10.3h.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: A typical high UV index of 7 in August suggests the following recommendations:
Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is at its strongest between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Minimize direct exposure to the sun during this period. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
