Weather in August
Temperature
August experiences an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.3°F (29.6°C), barely different from July's 86.7°F (30.4°C). Dema experiences a significant contrast between daily highs and an average nighttime temperature of 61°F (16.1°C) during August.Heat index
The heat index for August is calculated to be a fiery hot 95°F (35°C). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. 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.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
