On August 1st it’ll be a max of 25 degrees with light showers clearing by 1400.
On 15th the temperature will have dropped to a max of 23 degrees and should be mostly dry until 18th .
Hope that helps ?
My mate, who knows stuff, has been telling me about this thing called Goggle or summat like that. It’s well easy to work, even for numpties like me. I guess the inventors of Goggle will be chuffed it it catches on ‘cos they might make a few quid.

I’ve been there late August, early September. Weather included everything from persistent heavy rain and snow to beautiful sunshine.
Be prepared…

Same as in Picos. Makes sense !
Pah!
You have included September. September is irrelevant. August is the month in question. Indeed, if the OP wants news on the weather in early-to-mid-August, your post is still irrelevant.

I’ll be there for 3 weeks in August this year…… I’ll let you know
This is an invaluable offer.
It was much the same in EC1 yesterday. Today also, but no snow.
But were you prepared?
Exactly…
Only is as much as I stayed in the pub.

August 2024 - Started in Srinagar then to Leh, Panong Lake and Turtuk
No rain.
Wore a full mesh suit all the time with nothing but a Tshirt under it, didn't need anything else even when traveling the passes at over 5000 meters.
Wore a light jacket one evening to keep the chill off
so Hot!
Bloody hot I bet!
Also did three weeks at that time. Took Endurance shirt, pants and body armour for the warm days, and a goretex jacket and fleece for the very wet and snow days (a truck took our kit from stop to stop). You will have a fantastic time, hope you have a head for heights.
Phew! The OP will be much relieved 
Even at high altitudes it is warm in the day , but at night if camping you will be glad to have that Yak bed cover , it’s bloody cold and at 4500m you will be Cheyenne stoke breathing
