Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Lebanon, is also a moderately hot month, with an average temperature varying between 84.2°F (29°C) and 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Temperature

The shift into August records an average high-temperature of a still warm 84.2°F (29°C), subtly varied from July's 85.6°F (29.8°C). During the month of August, the temperature falls to an average of 65.8°F (18.8°C).

Heat index

August's average heat index is computed to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
