Weather in August
Temperature
August reports an average high-temperature of a still hot 89.8°F (32.1°C), slightly varied from July's 90.3°F (32.4°C). Edgil's average low-temperature for the month of August records at a pleasant 70.2°F (21.2°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is appraised at a scorching 107.6°F (42°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
