Weather in August
Temperature
Luxor observes a minor difference in average high-temperatures between July's 82°F (27.8°C) and August's 80.8°F (27.1°C). Luxor registers a significant reduction from the day's heat, with an average temperature drop to a refreshing 58.6°F (14.8°C) in August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is calculated to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). If activity and exposure persist, they could induce fatigue, leading to possible heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
