Worried about the Japan heat. Curious about other people’s experience

Finally decided to stop hesitating and finally visit Japan before I have any life regrets

However the cheapest tickets I could get were in early to mid august. And I didn’t do sufficient research regarding the weather before booking the tickets – I know, stupid move

However, since booking the tickets; I’ve done some research into the general average temperature around August for Tokyo, and concensus seems to be around 27-30 degrees celsius. But in every other post I read people are making it sound like I’m going to be walking into the pits of hell – and I’m genuinely panicking.

I do have experienced with hot and humid weather; having visited Singapore and Malaysia exclusively most of my life. However, I can’t really tolerate hot weather too well in general. I can mainly wear thin clothes and short pants throughout my trip, but I’m not sure it’ll be sufficient.

Should I be particularly concerned about my trip to the point where I need to cancel or re-schedule the time of the flight? Anyone can share their own experiences – especially my fellow aussies?

p.S: for a around 10-11 days trip, would 400000yen (exchanged from australian dollars) be sufficient in terms of trip budget (if i’m eating relatively cheap and living in cheap accomodation)?

EDIT: I’ve bitten the metaphorical bullet and changed the flight time to later in Oct; just works out better for me in general as well as less to worry about in terms of transport and weather. Despite that, thanks for all the advice guys
