Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Delhi, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 90.5°F (32.5°C) and min 72.9°F (22.7°C).

Temperature

As July transitions into August, Delhi records an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.5°F (32.5°C), showing a gentle shift from the preceding month. August sees the temperature falling to a mean low of 72.9°F (22.7°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Heed: Expect heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continued action may cause heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
