In Cyprus, this is how Nicosia actually wears August, not how a country centroid would. Compared with July and January, August sits in the middle of Nicosia's year.

What to expect
Daytime
Fierce heat in Nicosia in August. Start early. Hide in the middle. Come out again when the sun drops.
This is not a month for a packed walking itinerary. Water, shade, and a schedule that admits the climate is in charge.
Rain
Rain is not the story in Nicosia in August. Pack for sun. A shower would be news, not a plan.
Do not build the trip around weather windows. Build it around shade if it is hot, and around getting outside if it is not.
Evening
Evenings stay warm.
