August, the last month of the summer in Thebes, is another hot month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 67.1°F (19.5°C) and an average high of 86.2°F (30.1°C).

Transitioning into August, Thebes experiences an average high-temperature of a still hot 86.2°F (30.1°C), marking a minor shift from the preceding month. Thebes, during the month of August, experiences an average low-temperature of 67.1°F (19.5°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Implement enhanced safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Sustained activity might result in heatstroke.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
