Weather in August
Temperature
The weather during August records an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.7°F (31.5°C), closely mirroring the preceding month. The mean low-temperature during August nights is a warm 74.5°F (23.6°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 107.6°F (42°C). Incorporate additional safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Long-term activity may induce heatstroke.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful 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.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Sunshine
In August, the average sunshine is 10.6h.UV index
In August, the average daily maximum UV index is 6. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: In August, the maximum UV index of 6 suggests these recommendations:
Conform to measures and uphold sun safety traditions. Warding off skin and eye harm is necessary. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Counter UV radiation's ill effects with clothing designed for sun safety and UV-resistant eyewear.
