Weather in August

The advent of August sees the average high-temperature at a moderately hot 85.8°F (29.9°C), subtly shifted from July's 88°F (31.1°C). A noticeable temperature swing characterizes Winner's August nights, dipping to an average of 63.9°F (17.7°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Extended exposure and activity might lead to tiredness, potentially resulting in heat cramps.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
